A Little Birdie Birthday Card

This is an oldie but goodie. I love the A Little Birdie Told Me stamp set. I made this using some scraps I had on my desk and it came together nicely.  The card base is Crumb Cake, layered with Chocolate Chip card stock that I embossed with the Fancy Fan Embossing Folder.

The stamp was colored in with Copic markers and I attached the party hat with a glue dot. The background card stock is Gumball Green.

For the sentiment, I stamped it on Whisper White and then punched it out with the 1″ Circle Punch matted with Gumball Green. The strip of paper at the bottom is from Summer Smooches Designer Series Paper, notched into a V at the end.

Anyone remember this set?? A Little Birdie is a set I used to be in LOVE with! It was the precursor to all the bird and owl sets that have come to follow (like Cheep Talk, Good Friend, etc.).

This card is made from Melon Mambo textured card stock, cut to 6 1/2″ x 6 1/2″, folded in half. I layered the front with polka dot paper from Thoroughly Modern DSP. The birds are stamped in whisper white card stock in Brown Stazon ink, watercolored with close to cocoa ink and my Aquapainter. Then, I matted that layer onto soft suede card stock.

The sentiment is stamped on whisper white card stock, punched out with a 1″ Circle Punch layered on soft suede (1 3/8″ Circle Punch) and Melon Mambo (Scallop Circle Punch). All of that is attached with dimensionals.

I just love this card. I think it would make a great wedding card, but I left it general enough that it could have many more uses as well.

The base is Bermuda Bay textured card stock, cut to 6 1/2″ square, folded in half. The transparency layer is called “Sheer Delights” and has a beautiful dark brown flourish print. I adhered the transparency to the base using tiny glue dots strategically placed behind parts of the design so they wouldn’t show through.

Across the front of the card, I wrapped a piece of 5/8″ Chocolate Chip Grosgrain Ribbon. Then, I stamped “congratulations” from Congrats (SAB set) in Bermuda Bay ink on whisper white card stock, layered with chocolate chip. That is then attached to the card using dimenisonals.
