I'm late, I'm late! These little birds had to fly all the way from Australia to St. Lucia via Dublin, and now they're about to set off for PA. And before that they had to pay a visit to the hairdresser for a major dye job.
Thank goodness for a WT challenge which combined almost perfectly with my idea for this, as it's the first chance I've had to make a card all week.
As per the WT I used one sheet of (white) card. Cut it in half and used half for the base and half for printing on.
Base was stamped with Pocket Silhouettes, Inspired by Nature, an unknown fern and a vine from Autumn Leaves. The ferns were embossed before I used Pocket Silhouettes. Then I lightly chalked the background.
Birds from Angels Landing and letters for sentiment were printed on the other half of the card. Coloured the birds with re-inkers, added Glossy Accents to the beaks and popped up on foam. Cut a curved strip of card to match the vine more or less, sponged with green, stamped with leaves and placed the letters on.
In keeping with the tropical theme I've made a coconut and Malibu cake to bring along .

Love your little bird land party scene! Those little birds are just adorable! I like how you used the pocket silhouettes stamp as tree leaves. Very clever! Hugs, Trish
