Today’s project is a combination of two challenges, using the Free As A Bird Bundle.
Bird Bundle
My inspiration for the layout was from Fab Friday.
And, the colors are from TGIF.
I began with a Night Of Navy card base, topped with a layer of Whisper White Cardstock. The layer is stamped with Night of Navy Ink and the Crackle Paint Background Stamp.
The bird from the Free As A Bird Stamp Set is my focal point. I stamped him in Night of Navy Ink on Pool Party Cardstock, and fussy cut with Paper Snips.
The leaves were stamped in Granny Apple Green Ink on the same color Cardstock, and the flower was stamped in Pool Party Ink on Whisper White Cardstock.
I used Paper Snips to cut the stamped images, and arranged them on a Thick Whisper White, die-cut hexagon from the Stitched Nested Label Die Set.
The sentiment, “Thinking of you,” is from the Colorful Seasons Stamp Set, and I stamped it in Night of Navy Ink.
The horizontal strip beneath the hexagon is a scrap from a Stitched Lace die-cut, which I colored with a Sponge Dauber and Granny Apple Green Ink.
For the final touch, I added three Iridescent Sequins.
