Another Sweet Bird Card

Hi there!   Our snow melted overnight and it is sunny and pretty outside!  Yay!  It's feeling a little more like spring break today, even if it's still pretty cold out! :)  With springtime on my mind, thought I'd share another spring inspired card with you this morning:

This card uses the same recipe as yesterday's card!  I've paired the adorable For the Birds set with another pattern from the  new Tea For Two DSP pack from Stampin' Up!  The image has been watercolored with my ink pads and a water pen.  I've added a little sparkle by flicking Studio Calico Shine spray over the card.  Shine is seriously a color I couldn't live with out... I'm getting ready to buy my second bottle all ready!  Something else that has become a staple in my craft room is the great baker's twine by The Twinery!  I have been using it on every card lately and seriously love it!

Aren't those little birds cute!  They were fun to watercolor.  I have one more card in this little set to share with you this week!

Well, I hope you are enjoying your day!  We are expecting some fun company any minute! My dad and step mom are visiting with us the rest of the week!  I am so excited and these girls seriously can't wait!  They are excited to do crafts and go on treasure hunts with their Nay Nay and Papa! :)

Thanks for stopping by today!

Springtime Card

We are starting spring break today!  And, we had snow overnight... what is up with that!  I had planned on taking the girls out to the zoo and to see the cherry blossoms this week but it is cold and pretty dreary out.  More like a winter break lol!  We will have to revise our plans I think...

I am still in a springtime state of mind, even if it's cold out, so today I have a cute spring inspired card to share with you:

I've used the cute For the Birds set by Stampin' Up! for this card.  I think those little birds are so cute!  I stamped them using Jet Black Staz On ink and then watercolored them using my ink pads and a water pen.  The patterned papers are from the new Tea For Two DSP pack aslo by Stampin' Up!  The baker's twine is by The Twinery- this deep gray is their Stone color.

I created a little trio of cards using this set and will share the other two later this week!  These little birds really grew on me! :)

Well, I hope you are off to a great start this week!  We will be enjoying our week off, even if it's a little colder then normal around here this time of year! :)

Thanks for stopping by!
