I also made this as my card #2 for the PPA Bird is the Word challenge! I'm totally into birds right now, so I'm loving this themed challenge!
Stampin' Essentials Tips:
- I think the Nouveau Chic Designer Series Papers are just totally pretty! They inspired my color choices for today's card which are: Sage Shadow, Apricot Appeal, and Basic Gray!
- My bird comes from the Friends 24-7 stamp set on page 100 of the Idea Book & Catalog! I first stamped him in Basic Gray ink, then colored him in with Apricot Appeal ink and then colored in the branch with Sage Shadow ink.
- The 'Thinking of You' sentiment is from the Bird on a Branch stamp set on page 105 of the Idea Book & Catalog! I stamped it in Basic Gray ink on Apricot Appeal card stock, then made it into a pennant with my 1-1/4" Square punch! Glue dots are holding it in place since it's wavy!
