Bird in a Nest

Hello again! Today I’m using the new December 2019 Hedgehog Hollow Kit to create a cute bird in a nest card. I’m sharing this on the Hedgehog Hollow blog today, too!

This card came together pretty quickly. I started with a card panel of Neenah Solar White 80# paper and stamped the little bird with Copic friendly ink. Then I stamped the “nest” I created with the swirl stamp in two shades of brown ink.

I colored up the bird with copic markers and added some dots with copics and colored pencils. Then I white heat embossed the sentiment.

At this point, it was difficult to read the sentiment because it was white embossing on white paper. So I used make up brushes to brush on some Distress Ink.

I only inked it up around the “nest” and left it softer color toward the top. Then I die cut the cross-stitched rectangle, and cut down the outer rectangle as well so I could add some sparkly paper peeking from the background!

For the final touch, I added some Nuvo Jewel drops under the sentiment. Isn’t this birdie so cute?

I’m often asked what supplies I use to make my cards and projects, so I’ve put together a list using affiliate links when possible. If you make a purchase with these links I may receive a small commission. These help me to keep up with blog costs and continue bringing you fun projects. Thank you so much for your support!

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you enjoyed this project. See you soon with another card!
