Congratulations Karli - I loved looking through your beautiful gallery - Here is the card that inspired me Flamingo Friends
I used two birds (mine are Crazy birds) used a similar layout and gold sentiment. I just purchased these Crazy Birds the other day and wanted to use them...
This is also for this weeks ways to use it challenge - Reinkers - I coloured my image with Stampin up reinkers using an aqua painter.
This is also for this weeks sketch challenge - I chose to use sketch SC520 for my layout.
I stamped the birds on water colour paper and coloured them with reinkers. I stamped the birds again on the striped DP, cut out the circle. Nex I Cut out the coloured birds except for their legs. I used a Stiletto to embossed their eyes and beaks to give them some dimension. Cut out the scalloped oval. Adherred the striped dp and birds. Pierced holes in the scallops and around the circle. Die cut the "Birthday" sentiment with gold paper. Stamped the "happy" sentiment and made it into a banner design - Popped it up. Made the base panel with feather dp, matted with light mottled green card stock and dark grey card stock. Sewed together. I cut out 3 green feathers to place at the lower left of the bird panel... I needed something to adhered the "birthday" sentiment to.. Popped up the image panel. Finished the inside of card..
Did I tell you that I absolutely love these "crazy birds"
I hope you are enjoying your day in the spotlight, Karli...
Hugs.. Pat
