I found both these stamps at half-off at Hobby Lobby in January. Just now playing with them. I stamped the bird and branch, cut the nesties shape to frame it, and sponged tumbled glass around the edges. Then I colored it with watercolor pencils. The nest was stamped separately, colored, and cut out. Then I cut out around the bird and branches enough to fit the nest on the branch. This resulting image is a lovely sign of spring for me.

ReplyDeleteIt's been much warmer here in Minnesota this week. . .in the mid 40's. What a relief after all those below zero days! We should be back to colder temps over the weekend with a possibility of snow, but your card reminds me that Spring really is on the way! Such a pretty card, Lin!
