I fell in love with this Hero Arts bird called "Wise Bird" . I tucked a woodgrain heart safely under his wing to deliver a message to a special friend.
The Pinstripe background was used several places. I stamped it in Soft Pool ink behind the bird & in white ink on the Spellbinder frame.
Before you cut your images put Glossy Accents on them. (The GA gives the image more structure.) I left a boarder around the images when I was trimming the leaves & branches. The wise bird was colored with Copic markers & I used a white gel pen on the wings & his chest. Enamel Accents on the eye. The sparkles on the heart are Rock Candy.
I love the Leafy Vines and used it to decorate my flower pot die from Spellbinders. Some distress ink really made the vines stand out.
For this card I created a bird house out of the flower pot with Hero Arts "Sunshine Papers". This heart die cut from Simon Says delivers another special message. I stamped the heart with Hero Arts "Leafy Vines" and a sentiment. The Pinstripe background was used again on this card but, I used it with the lines going two different directions. So fun!
This Wise Bird was colored only with distress ink. White accents were added with a gel pen. Enamel Accents were added to the eye again.
One last card...a fun, quick and happy card.

You rock lady!

The stuning detail on your cards is amazing. Love the birds, and the pinstripe is adorable.
Fantastic cards, Kathy!!! Your eye for colour is terrific - and you always add in so many wonderful details to your projects! I love your colouring on the birds - so realistic! And your last card is fab - I love how you used the pinstripes stamp! Way to kick off the hop!

Beautiful card, i love the vines on the flower pot. The bird is totally gorgeous and the heart under the bird's wing is so clever :)
The colouring on the cards is simply stunning. Thanks for showcasing such wonderful possibilities for the pin stripe stamp.

I love the details! Super card - thank you!
Your cards are lovely. I love your attention to detail and your emaculate coloring.
Hi Kathy, This is my first visit to Hero Arts and the Blog Hop via their site. After seeing so many comments it's hard to say something that hasn't already been said, but here goes. I love the birdie with the heart under its wing. Reminds me of the saying "wearing your heart on your sleeve" only this would be "on your wing". Beautiful 3D effects with the branch and very clever use of colour. (Sorry I'm an Australian and we spell it that way) :o) Gorgeous all round effect. I'm partial to birdies anyway. Have a wonderful day! Helen (Lillyput Crafts ...blog)
Love these cards. They are beautiful and clever.
Wow! These cards are fabulous!

Simply amazing! Love how you colored the birds in different ways and the detail is super. And the colors on the striped background-beautiful!
I am a horrible blogger but managed to get the picture on my blog but had trouble linking your blog to my post. I copied the url but when you click the link it goes to "Page not found" but your blog is one of the options to go to. Weird.

The wise bird is so pretty. Love how you colored it.

Beautiful cards! Really love the bird stamp.
Great idea to combine these dies and stamp! Think the bird and the leavy vines stamps are great and versatile! Love the cards and you have inspired me again! Hugs, Gerrina
Because I just love these stamps and die, I have put the photo with a link back on my blog.... Hugs, Gerrina
Wow! I love your birds! The coloring and the way they were each holding the hearts in a different way! I have never seen the pinstripe before, so that is now on my list!
I had to look twice at the 2 cards because the bird looks so different. Thanks for showing at the end all the items used in making the cards. With temps rising to 31 today the cards remind me spring will surely come. tfs
Your bird card is beautiful!
