Now ... on to today's card!
Today I am once again praising the arrival of Spring!
I've actually been watching the birds going in & out of our birdhouses, building their nests and getting them all ready for those young ones!
That was my inspiration for today's card using birds, branches and bird houses!
As you know, the main product line at Dies R Us is DIES ... BUT, they do have some other goodies available like the fabulous Memory Box Stencils that are also in stock now! For instance, this 'Garden Vines' #88523 that I have used for the background on today's card.
By simply placing the stencil on a piece of white cardstock, I gently sponged various Tim Holtz distress inks over the stencil to create this sunset background for my card.
Another fun technique I used today was 'paper piecing' on the birdhouses. I have so many scraps that I've been trying to use some of them every chance I get and since my ACTUAL birdhouse are decorated I thought why not do the same for today's card.
The dies used today are:
Impression Obsession #DIE058 - Love Birds
Poppy Stamps #928 - Carolina Birdhouse
Cheery Lynn Designs #B178 - Flourish Leaf Strip
Joy! Crafts #6002/0137 (available during European Die Sale)
I just love watching the many birds we have here in N.E. Ohio, USA ...
AND I love creating cards with the fabulous dies that are available at Dies R Us!
