Today I have three bird cards to share with you & a GIVEAWAY at the end of my post. This first card I combined two stamps & a few die cuts to create my nature scene. The flower stamp you can find here, the bird stamp here.  Copic markers, white dots and distress ink were a few of the details added to my card. I cut a slit in the beak & glued a portion of this die cut.

One of my favorite things to do is stamp or stencil a background.  In this card I did both using Hero Arts "Soft Sky" ink. The branch and sentiment are from this 4x6 clear set. 

Two different color combos for the birds were fun to create. Using a white gel pen on the birds feathers & the beak can transform any bird.

The pictorial demonstrates a few of the details I used on the cards. Click on the photo for a larger view. If you have any questions please email me :)

My GIVEAWAY is everything you see in the photo above. (Hero Arts bird, Lawn Fawn acrylic grid block, white gel pen, Wink of Stella clear glitter pen & my card)
