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!
