The theme this week over at Daring Cardmakers is ‘draw a bird day’. Luckily you are also allowed to use stamped or paper pieced birds, because I’ve got some new Papertrey stamps that I was itching to use! This stamp is using the Bitty Bird set, and I got the matching dies too to save cutting out those little birdies, although I need a bit more practice stamping on them as it’s quite a skill!
Here’s a close up, where hopefully you can see the glamour dust on all the leaves, the flowers and the little bird wings.
I also made a card using my new Wonderfully Whimsical set, also from Papertrey. I’ve also used a fabulous doily that was very kindly given to me by my friend Chris. I’ve painted it with Jenni Bowlin paint in ‘Stick Candy’ so it co-ordinates perfectly with the tree and text. Isn’t it a gorgeous die? I think I might have to treat myself to one next time I order stuff from Papertrey. I can see that the little hill stamp from this set is going to get a lot of use, it will work so well with so many other images.
