Birds in Flowers

 I was surprised to see this bird stamp set at the Dollar store, there are many birds in the set and they stamp really well. I stamped the flowers and leaves in the set out also and then fussy cut them and popped them up on foam tape to look like the bird is in a flowering tree.

• Crafter's Square - Bird stamps, colored w/markers, fussy cut the flowers and leaves and popped the flowers up with foam tape
• Spellbinders - Labels 11 die
• Martha Stewart - Branch punch on the flower paper, tag punch
• Stamps of Life - Minis4circles sentiment stamp

Birthday wishes

 When I was working on my junk journal the other day I was going through some stickers and vellum images I had bought off Amazon just for my junk journals and when I came upon this vellum image I thought that would be pretty for the next birthday card I need to make so I left it out just for it.  Sorry I don't know the name of the maker of them, I didn't keep it because I thought it was only going to be for my private use.

• Vellum image purchased through Amazon, sorry no name
• Raspberry Road Designs - Love lives here paper
• Spellbinders - Romantic Rectangles dies
• ODBD - Mini tag sentiment stamp

That's all for today, thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today,

Sympathy

 One of the girls in my cardmaking group lost her Dad, I know I should have cards on hand for these times but I just don't. I had no idea what I wanted to do so when that happens I first try to look through what I have and see if anything comes to mind, and I decided to look through the items from past years Advent calendars through Crafters companion and I found the stamp and die set from one years and this embossing folder from another and thought I could combine them for this card.  I went with a dictionary page that I inked for the background.

  

• Crafter's Companion Advent Calendar - 2021 & 2022 - Dragonfly stamp & dies, Wood embossing folder
• Dictionary page - Torn and inked
• Taylored Expressions - Care & Comfort II sentiment stamp
• Spectrum noir - Clear Sparkle pen on wings
