I was inspired by Bonnie Klass's card, to use the blue bird sheet of paper from my pack (wasn't quite sure what to do with that), and to stamp a little bird inside the cage. This may be an obvious idea, but I thought it was brilliant, and had completely forgotten I owned the aforementioned bird stamp! (Oh dear, do you think this girl has a little too much SU! stuff??!!)
I have added Old Olive into the mix, because an all-blue card was a little hard for me to do. I always feel 'safe' with green! Here's my vintagey Nature Walk card:
Stamps: Nature Walk, En Francais, Friends 24-7, Silhouette Sentiments, Tiny Tags
Card: Crumb Cake, Night of Navy, Very Vanilla
DSP: Botanical Gazette Designer Series Paper
Ink: Night of Navy stampin' pad and marker, Old Olive and Crumb Cake stampin' pads
Other: Mat Pack and Paper Piercing tool, Curly Label punch, Medium Jewelry Tag punch, Basic Pearls, Stamp-a-ma-jig, Pinking Hearts border punch, sponge daubers, Night of Navy 5/8" grosgrain ribbon, Victoria Crochet Trim, Vintage trinkets, Regals brad
Now I reallllllllly like this! The colours are lovely and its got a really vintage type look to it! GO YOU SWEET THING!! LOL

Beautiful card, I love the colurs, and the birdcage stamp is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous as per usual Mrs B! :) Love the two soft "prints" (SU's & yours) layered together, the subtle pearl accents & that sweet grouping of tags on the crochet trim. Beautiful. :)
