Just nesting…

obpelegnest2

Come on spring!  Its colder here today – but I know spring is right around the corner.

For this card I used the stamps from the Elegant Nest Cling set to make two love birds snug in their nest.  The set contains images by Odd Bird Planet.

I stamped the birds in Memento Tuxedo and colored them with Copics.  I added some Copic Spica glitter pen.  Then I cut them out with a circle Spellbinders die and inked the background slightly with a duster brush and Broken China Distress Ink

I colored the nest, cut out around it and adhered it in front of the birds with foam tape. 

The background paper is from my stash (Crate Paper).  I added the faux stitching by piercing holes with my Tim Holtz Design Ruler (love that thing) and connecting the holes with little dashes of Souffle pen.

Thanks for stopping by!
