Here are some closeups. They are all very different. I am not sure which one I like best!
For this card I used stamps from Hero Arts. One is a bird bookmark stamp from which I cut the birds and flowers after colouring with Chameleon Markers The sentiment is also from Hero Arts. The bird cage is black, the background cardstock is a navy and black damask from Heidi Swapp's Hawthorne collection. Into this I used a rectangle die with my embossing plates to create a mock border. The green cardstock is My Colors cardstock; dies used were a flourish die from Die-namics and leaves from Sizzix. The little bow is from lace that had been dyed with Tim Holtz Distress Stain.
This vintage style card was lots of fun to make. I took a piece of patterned paper from Marion Smith's Nirvana collection and sprayed with the new Tim Holtz Distress Resist Spray. Then inked the heck out of it with Vintage Photo Distress Ink. What a gorgeous effect! Then I took old book pages, some dies and stamps. (birds from Lifestyle Crafts die, flower from Elizabeth Crafts die, sentiment stamp from Heritage Makers - stamped on the margin). The ivy is cut with a Cottage Cutz die from My Colors cardstock and this time I cut the birdcage from Metallic Paper from Bazzill Basics.
Ok, maybe this mixed media card is my favorite. I chose patterned paper from my stash (brand unknown..), ripped it into strips, glued the strips to a 4x6 inch piece of cardstock and inked with Tim Holtz Distress Ink. These birds are too cute! They are a Hero Arts mounted stamp. I used Chameleon Markers to colour them in. Flowers and leaves are Prima Marketing and the sentiment is a stamp from Gourmet Rubber Stamps. This time I cut the birdhouse from Bling Cardstock by Bazzill Basics; inside is a bit of Ivy left over from the last card. I used foam tape from Scrapbook Adhesives to adhere most of the pieces.
Hope these cute cards inspire you to stay creative.
