June 3rd starts the new Annual catalog and there is an adorable new bundle included called Birds & Branches. All my posts this week will be using this stamp and die set. There is a lot of versatility with the dies and the stamps that I want to share with you.
All about the Dies
Everything about this card, with the exception of the sentiment, is done with a die. Stitched Rectangle, Stitched Nested make the perfect backdrop. The woodgrain Designer Series Paper is from the new In Good Taste. It looks perfect with a Crumb Cake card base.
Birds & Branches wouldn’t be any good without birds and branches. I cut out all of these elements from plain cardstock then used Stampin blends to color and shade the cardstock. Calypso coral on the so saffron bird makes for really nice coloring.
I added a few yellow pearls but they are retired. A great alternative would be Gold metallic pearls. I made a second one of this card and used the gold pearls instead.
Thank you for visiting today. I always appreciate your comments and answer all questions as soon as possible. Until next time…
Happy Stamping
Lynn

What is a share?
It’s just like how it sounds! Instead of buying all of the new paper and ribbon in the Annual Catalog yourself, you’ll split it with 3 other people and pay a fraction of the price – and I do all the work for you!

Lynn, it’s just lovely!! Your card is delightful and has inspired me to create something similar to send to my elderly aunt to add color and cheer to her day! I just love your overall design and the way you colored your birds and leafy branch!
This set didn’t interest me until now; your colouring is beautiful & I agree with you about the calypso & so saffron …….stunning!
Thank you Sue!!
