HIS
HERS
As everyone who reads my blog knows by now, I LOVE THIS BIRD! I decided to do a his and hers thing after I stamped the bird in Regal Rose ink. I liked how it turned out, plus it gave me an excuse to use the Hooray Eyelets that I’ve been hoarding. I’m turning over a new leaf–I now use any accessory I feel like using and I don’t feel bad about it at all. I even used up all my flower brads the other day!! Oh well, I’ll just have to order more!! With the new catalog coming, I’m trying to make room. I can’t justify getting new stuff if I still have packages of old stuff untouched. I’ll admit though, the big shiny brown buttons from Button Latte have been impossible to part with just yet. Maybe one day….
As for these cards, the base is Close to Cocoa, layered with a strip of alternating pieces of Textured Kiwi Kiss and Taken with Teal card stock. The bird from Good Friend was stamped on Whisper White card stock in Regal Rose ink for the “her” version and Baja Breeze ink for the “his” version. Using a mask, I stamped the legs in Chocolate Chip ink. I used So Saffron ink for the pink bird’s beak and Pumpkin Pie ink for the blue bird’s beak.
On the “her” card, I used the Friends Forever jumbo eyelet from Hooray, which I attached using my crop-a-dile. The “his” version also uses a jumbo eyelet from Hooray, with a blue Ice Circle Rhinestone Brad in the center.
