Less is More - Birds

By
This week the lovely ladies at Less is More are asking us to make a One Layer Card featuring Birds.
My first though was to reach for my faithful Stampin' Up stamps - I have recently purchased the gorgeous Young Vermillion. However, tweeting away in my stash were (GASP) some stamps that I had never ever used (more GASPS).
Here they are all lined up waiting to meet you


These have been stamped in black Versafine and coloured with Stampin' Write Markers. The frame is freehand and the grass is some I have had forever!
Thanks for looking today - hope you are having a great weekend - Jacqueline xx

    Sweet little row of birds - lovely one layer card. Afraid mine usually end up with smudges although it doesn't happen when stamping on bits for layering!!

    This is adorable and I love the pops of colour on the birds. The grass is great below too to give a sense of perspective.

    Great design, the grass on the bottom and the 'stitched' edge finishes it off perfectly.

So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr
