Y'all already saw one of my samples using the Birds of a Feather set - and here are 3 more!
I incorporated the new Revised Out On A Limb set with some of these samples (and you'll see snippets of the set and the new larger sentiments with some of my other June samples) - I was glad to pull this old favorite out and use it again!
I stamped the branch and the NEW leaf image onto white CS (I stamped the leaf image 3 times to get a fuller look), the added the nest (stamped onto Kraft CS, then cut out and adhered with dimensionals) and eggs.
The sentiment is from the BoaF set (I think I already gushed about loving the font in this set - but yeah I love it!), and I made the scallops by punching out circles from Aqua Mist CS and adhering them under the chocolate chip mat.
This was another quick and easy card - I had a piece of patterned paper from PT's Everyday Blessings 12x12 pack sitting here and the open CD case with the stamps was laying on top of it (along with who knows what else - my desk is a DISASTER when I'm trying to meet a deadline - I have LAYERS of stuff to clean up now!) and I though "hmmmm that looks kinda cool!!" so I made it into this!
I stamped the line from the stamp (it wasn't too hard to get it straight on the acrylic block, then I had to stamp it twice b/c the paper was wider than the stamp), then the birdies, and scalloped the bottom edge with my corner rounder punch (tutorial on that here).
The sentiment was stamped onto white CS then punched out with one of Stampin' Up!'s oval punches. I added a little strip of black CS behind it, matted the patterned paper on another piece of black CS and attached it to a white card base and that was it!
Last but not least I have this sympathy card that I made using the NEW Papertrey Vintage Cream cardstock - just you wait till you get it in your hands - is it ever FABULOUS CS! The color is just right and the weight is just slightly lighter than the Stamper's Select White, and it has a slightly smoother texture too. It's an awesome addition to the Papertrey CS lineup!!
I was thinking lilacs when I made this card - my back yard is surrounded by lilac bushes (makes it completely private - love that) and they're all in bloom right now - lovely light purple and a deep purple tree and even a sprinkle of white ones facing the back alley.
I used the Revised OOAL set again, stamping the flowers in Lavender Moon, then inking up the single flower stamp with Plum Pudding and randomly stamping it here and there.
I stamped the sentiment from the Birds of a Feather set with VersaFine Onyx black ink, then inked up the hummingbird with the same and stamped it.
