Birthday Wishes

Friday, November 20, 2015

Hi there! For my second post today I made a card for Freshly Made Sketches.


I was super excited about this week's sketch because I just got a new paper pad from Michael's and I thought it would go great with a new PTI stamp set. I die cut and trimmed all my pieces and stamped the bird and the sentiment. This card evolved as I was making it because originally I just had the bird on the branch and I felt like it was too plain. First I die cut the tree and added it to the left side. That grounded the branch but it still needed something so I grabbed another new stamp set and stamped a few snowflakes. I love the way it turned out. 

My Supplies: 
Stamps: PTI Winter Woods, PTI Fab Flakes
Dies: PTI Winter Woods, MFT Die-namics Blueprint 13
Ink: PTI Pure Poppy, PTI True Black
Paper: PTI Soft Stone, PTI Pure Poppy, PTI Stamper's Select White, DCWV Cranberry Christmas 

Thank you for coming by! I hope you have a fabulous weekend!

    Jenelle, I love this beautiful birthday card! The plaid paper you picked perfectly compliments your stamped bird and the snowflakes were an excellent choice for filling in some of the white space. Lovely!
