A Little Birdie Told me, It’s Your birthday!

  If you have been reading my blog for a while, you already know I love birds. In fact, I was just out at a park looking at them.  So many cute baby birds, learning the ropes, this time of year!  So I always am drawn to the great bird stamps!


This card using stamps from three different sets that I will link below.  The bird and branch were stamped in brown ink and colored in with pencils and markers.  The blue circle behind them is die cut from my sheet of paper that I brayered all the extra acrylic paint on when I was doing some gelli prints.  Finally, the background was done with a stencil and the shaving cream/reinker technique.  They all happened to get pulled together with the stamps!

That bird is stunning against your blue circle background! Really love how you've incorporated the different techniques on your design here!

Gorgeous card, Heidi! I had to google that technique, forgot how to get the reinker-cream onto the stencil, duh! LOL, felt like a fool, just use a spatula and pick up some of it, like stencil paste, lol. Anyway, love both your backgrounds and bird, xoxo

Thud. This one has me stopped in my tracks. So gorgeous with your handmade backgrounds. They work so perfect with your beautiful stamped image. Your colouring is done so nice and coordinates well with the background.

You did a great job of using bits of your backgrounds all together and very pretty coloring of the birds!
