There's a beautiful product bundle in Stampin' Up!'s new catalog, and I had a chance to work with some of the stamps and dies the other day. Oh my. I am in love. It's the Birds & Branches bundle, and it is just so sweet. You want to see the whole card, I'm sure, so here you go:
To make this card, I began by cutting the leafy wreath from a piece of Whisper White cardstock that I had embossed with the Woodland embossing folder. On the back of this layer, I adhered the stamped and die-cut nest (Crumb Cake cardstock) and the Pool Party die-cut eggs, which I sponged with Pool Party ink and then brushed with the Wink of Stella Clear Glitter Brush. That adorable bird was die-cut from Whisper White cardstock, and then colored by sponging with Pool Party, Pacific Point, and Soft Suede ink. I thought the Champagne Rhinestone Jewel was perfect for his eye! On the backside of the die-cut leafy wreath, I placed Foam Adhesive Strips to hold the wood-looking designer paper, which is from the brand new In Good Taste DSP. A scrap of this same DSP was used for the stamped sentiment, which was cut with the Classic Label punch. I think everyone is going to need this DSP because there are soooooooo many beautiful images/textures!
The finished Whisper White layer was adhered to Early Espresso cardstock. Before adhering it to the Pool Party card, I wrapped a strip of Polka Dot Tulle ribbon around the layers. The metal leaf is from Tropical Oasis Trinkets, and I tied it onto the tulle ribbon with a piece of Linen Thread.
So do you love this card as much as I do?
