Hello everyone. Von Marie here with you today and I’m excited to be on the Blog today! We have a New Challenge. This week it’s Birdies #IB394 and a New Card Sketch. So much fun!
Let’s Get Started:


I was so inspired by the colors, birdies, and card sketch. I almost painted some rocks and drew faces like the inspiration photo but I went simpler. I seen this birdie stamp set in my stash from CC Designs called Cute Birds Stamp and Dies. I stamped 1 image with Memento Tuxedo ink on white cardstock as 2 were stamped and die-cut already. I colored with my alcohol markers similar to the inspiration photo. Next, I cut out the bird with the coordinating die.

I had a MFT Die set called Hanging Branch, which was perfect. I cut out the branches with brown cardstock and the leaves with heavyweight green glitter cardstock. I cut out a white panel 4 x 5 1/4 and glued everything with liquid glue. I carefully stamped my sentiment with Tuxedo black ink and my stamping platform using the CC Designs stamp set. I then layered my white panel on a blue 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 cardstock and glued to a brown A2 card base. Lastly, I used a white gel pen for the birds eyes and added some glossy accents to the birds glasses and to all the birds eyes. I love how this card came out.
I hope you join us!
