Hey Chickadee

I used a soft suede textured cardstock base and some designer paper by Cosmo Cricket, coordinating ribbon, and silver fancy embossed brads. I like to add lots of piercing on all of the edges some sponged on shading to all of the image and sentiment panels. Chickadee from the A Little Birdie Told Me set by Firecracker Designs By Pamela was colored in Copic markers. The card fold is the easel style and stands up and also lays flat for easy mailing.

Father's Day Box

The deer, tree, and sentiment are from Firecracker Designs By Pamela. I highlighted the tree with white gel pen, used the smooch spritz from SU on the Creamy Caramel panel and hardware and linen thread to embellish. Paper is by K&CO. This is a re-purposed candy box that will be for my husband's Father's Day gift. Not sure what we are going to fill it with yet!

Birdhouse Set

I love this sweet bird set from Firecracker Designs by Pamela called A Little Bird Told Me. I made a set of all occasion notecards to match the birdhouse. The template for the house is from Nichole Heady's Capture The Moment blog.

A Little Bird Told Me

This sweet bird set is called A Little Bird Told Me and is by Firecracker Designs By Pamela. I was invited to be the guest designer for May!! She has some really beautiful stamps and new digital images. Fun stuff!

Birdhouse Welcome

Today's color challenge on SCS really had me stuck for quite a while. Basic Gray, So Saffron, and Bermuda Bay... I wasn't certain which color I wanted to use as the predominant one. My usual strategy in tackling a color challenge is to find a piece of designer paper with one, some, or all of those colors in it and go from there. I found this leaf print from Autumn Meadows so then started thinking along the lines of a Nature card. I have really been into birds and birdhouses lately and fell in love with the digital image from Firecracker Designs By Pamela. I colored it in Copics using today's challenge colors. I hope you like it, it seemed so springy to me.
