A little Bird-day card

Hello! Today I have a little Bird-day card to share, with a video too! I love the bright and vibrant card with a bright and happy parrot…and I hope you love it, too.

Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

I just adore these parrots from Heffy Doodle! So when I created a nice layered focal point with the Deckled Paper Hugs die set, I knew the focal image would be this happy parrot.

I cut the Decked Paper Hugs dies with cardstock that matched my colored parrot (which I colored up with alcohol markers). I added some dots on the parrot for interest, but also to help the transition of the colors.

For the background, I stenciled on the Vertical Vines stencil with some Peacock Feathers Distress Ink. Then I popped up the parrot and perch with some foam adhesive.

I finished off the card by layering up all the cut cardstock, then added some sequins and gems to the front. I sure love the Sparkle Mixes from Heffy Doodle!

I hope you enjoyed this card today! It sure is a happy, bright card! See you soon with more cards.

Adding Gold to Christmas Cards

Hello! Today I have a video about Adding Gold touches to Christmas Cards. I’m starting with the cutest Cozy Kitties stamp set and plaid stencil from Heffy Doodle.

Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

First I blended some Evergreen Bough ink onto my panel. Then I added some gold to my background using a gold pen…I just followed the stripes on the stenciled background using a ruler to get it straight.

This Cozy Kitty is just the cutest! I colored the images using Copic Markers. Then I cut out the Merry Christmas sentiment using the striped red paper from Tinsel Town 6×6 Paper Pack from Heffy Doodle. I love the red stripes! You can see I also used the same paper for the mat layer around my panel.

For the shadow layer of the Merry Christmas Sentiment die, I used Gold Metallic cardstock. It’s another easy way to add a touch of gold!

I hope you will check out the video to see all the details of this card coming together.
