Birds Are Chirping

Simon Says- Anything Goes

I had fun with this card. I used the Sizzex to emboss the flower frame and then I coloured in the flowers using a soft brush with distress inks. I took a purple dye ink pad and brushed it onto the card so that anything raised would become purple. I took a stencil and placed the image onto the middle of the card taping it down so it wouldn't move. I took the different coloured butter spreads and spread it onto the stencil so it creates these loving birds. I think they turned out well and enjoyed making this.

This was a quick card because I found the glittery blue scrap of paper and wanted to use it. I stamped Frosty the snowman and the snowflakes. I cut them out and placed them on with pop up dots. The snowflakes have 2 different sizes of pop up dots and the 3rd is glued right on the card for dimension. I have a die cut for the saying and used the sizzex machine to cut it out.

I love wolves, they are the first animal I visit when I go to the zoo. I stamped the image onto cardstock and did some colouring with my gamsol pencils. I coloured the background with my distress inks. I got my sizzex out and my different leafy die cuts to cut them out and placed around the wolves framing them. It’s as if you caught a moment through the foliage to see these beautiful animals.

That’s it for now…Have a wonderful, windy day!

  2. Those Wolves are perfect for our We Love Stamping theme and the birdies on the fist ideal for Spring at Stamping Sensations, lovely to see you at both, but can you pop the stamp details in your post to be eligible (as requested on the challenge posts/rules).

  3. Hi, Birgit!

    I've come to see your latest card creations, dear friend. What I like about the first card is the soft colors that blend together so nicely, along with the birds on the branch. A couple of weeks ago, I observed a robin throwing himself against our basement window over and over again. I looked up the strange behavior and learned that male robins fiercely protect their territory in spring. This particular robin saw his reflection in the glass and thought it was a male rival. This morning, our lawn is filled with birds, and I even spotted one on our deck. Our high temp is expected to soar to 81 today, a welcome change after a harsh winter and rough spring.

    I love the blue and white color combo on card #2 along with the happy snowman. As I do every year at this time, let me be the first to wish you a Merry Christmas!

    My favorite card is the depiction of wolves. I love wolves too and thank you for featuring the majestic but misunderstood animal on your card.

    I return tomorrow with my next post at Shady's Place, and I will be back to see you here at BBC tomorrow and again on Thursday. Have a wonderful day, dear friend BB!
