Don't Forget the Birds!

I orginally made this treat for the tweeties as a wedding flavor thing, since I liked this color combo so much - although the colors are not that "wedding looking". I thought I'd post it now, since it is so cold today here in the northeast, to remind everyone to take care of their feathered friends outside.

For this one I cut a Top Note from Bravo Burgundy using the Stampin' Up! Big Shot machine, then stamped it with the Bella Toile background stamp using the Bravo Burgundy ink and then sponged the edges with the burgundy ink. The Dreams Du Jour image was stamped with Timber Brown Staz-On on Very Vanilla card stock and watercolored with the ink pads. I cut the image out and layered it over a scalloped square punched from Old Olive. After filling the cello bag and stapling the Top Note on, I tied a Chocolate Chip Taffeta ribbon around the Top Note at attached the layered image.

Happy Stamping!

Dreams Du Jour with Top Note

I've never done a challenge before in my stamping life, but I admire Kristina Werner's Blog so much I decided to give her 20th. Color Inspiration a try. Below is the challenge that was posted on her blog: http://www.kwernerdesign.com/. I had gotten the idea to use the new Top Note Die from Stampin' Up! this way a few days ago and these colors were perfect for use with the Dreams Du Jour set and the Top Note.



So, I used Very Vanilla, Pink Pirouette, Certainly Celery, and Chocolate Chip card stock. I stamped the Bella Toile background on the Vanilla with Pink Pirouette ink. I stamped the Love you image from Dreams Du Jour in Timber Brown Staz-On twice on Very Vanilla and watercolored both with Pink Pirouette, Regal Rose, Certainly Celery, and Chocolate Chip. I cut out part of the flower on the one and mounted it above the other with a Dimensional. I cut the Love you image out and layered it to Chocolate Chip which I also cut around the outline of the Love you image. Then I mounted both pieces above a Scallop Square of Certainly Celery. Oh, the ribbon is Chocolate Chip Taffeta.

Happy Stamping!
