I love this new set! This stamp set was one of our wonderful pillow gifts while on the Alaska cruise... how fun is that?
One of the most fun activites we do as Stampin' Up! Demonstrators is to swap cards between us. I am in a great swap group that swaps cards across the country each month.. and I love it!
I made 21 copies of this card and sent it off to Carol, who lives in the Minneapolis area. She will separate the cards and then send back to me the cards that were made by 21 demonstrators all over the country. I love this because it gives me lots of new ideas to share with you!
Here's the card that I sent to Carol to make the swaps . I can't wait to get my package back in the mail!
I stamped the bird in Daffodil Delight and then used the Tangerine Tango marker to define the feet and beak. Then I stamped again on a separate scrap of Whisper white cardstock, cut out just the bird and mounted it over the stamped image with Stampin' Dimensionals. I used markers on my stamp to color in the branch (Chocolate Chip) and the leaves (Old Olive). I then punched out 2 little flowers from Poppy Parade card stock using the four leaf punch from the "itty Bitty Punch pack" and adhered them with Mini Glue Dots. Little pearls in the center finish off the flowers.
I punched the whole design out with the large circle punch and then mounted it on a Daffodil Delight square punched from the Scallop Squares Duo Die,and then embossed with the Square Lattice embossing folder. I added the Old Olive DSP, the Poppy Parade ribbon, and the sentiment punched with the Designer Label punch, all mounted with Stampin' Dimensioals. The sentiment piece was daubed in Poppy Parade using a Dauber.
