Hi everyone, I was sorting through my stamps the other day and saw these NBUS stamps, amongst many I may add. I had to make a quick card, so I made a card in the style of Christine Stokes, and die cut 3 squares, the middle one just a plain die cut which was embossed, to enhance the edge. I also rubbed an ink pad over it to add a little something?
The birds were stamped on the smallest square and coloured with DI's, I thought I would make them blue tits, they are so pretty. OK! In the style of blue tits! I then stamped the sentiment from another set of stamps. Layered the dies and 3D'd the sentiment. Quick and easy? Well, it was when I had worked out where to place the sentiment.
A quick post today. I hope you are all enjoying the sun?
inks - Distress inks faded jeans, squeezed lemonade, shabby shutters, chipped sapphire, black soot
dies - I've had them for years, could be all Tonic?

ReplyDeleteYour cute little birds are a great NBUS find, and I love this quick CAS card you created with them. Adorable :)
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty card (I love your little blue tits). The frames work so well, especially the distressed inked one, it works so well sandwiched between the white ones.
