Buds, Blossoms and a Little Bird by Jean Okimoto

Need a background, a focal point, or stems for buds and blossoms?  The versatile new Sunshine and Wildflowers Clear Stamp Set can be all three - and more!  Hi, Jean here with a garden greeting from our new Summer Meadow collection of stamps and dies.  

Diecut the largest Heritage Rectangle Frame from smooth white cardstock.  Stamp the new Sunshine and Wildflowers image with Nocturne VersaFine Clair.  Quickly heat emboss it with detail clear powder.  Attach it to a side-folded white A2 card.

Cut the Bird Blossoms from light, medium and dark peachy/coral 6x6's in the Blush Collection.  Save the extras for another project - or a mixed-bouquet variation of today's card.

Attach adhesive label paper (or a sticker sheet) to light gray wool-blend felt and cut the Bird Blossoms bird.  The paper backing stabilizes the felt and keeps liquid adhesives from saturating it.  Use a toothpick to define the eye area.  Cut the beak/head section from yellow cardstock.  Color the eye area with a black marker and attach the diecut behind the head.  Cut the wing from Black Glossy Paper (cardstock).  

Cut the smallest Heritage Rectangle Frame from the light peach cardstock.  Trim the ends of the Thank You Foil Greetings White Tab and attach it to the frame diecut.

Attach the diecuts and greeting tab to the wildflower background.  Cut an A2-sized piece of cardstock to protect the card front for mailing.

Thanks for visiting our blog...have a great weekend!
