Aviary Love


Hello! I hope everyone had a nice weekend. Mine was spent doing some cleaning and organizing....fun stuff! Haha! Today's card is the other card that I made for my coworker to choose from. I think this one is more over the top than the one from Friday. And this is the one he ended up picking for his fiance. I just love how this came out. It is so pretty! :) The flowers were fun to make too. Especially since I rarely use them on cards because they would make it too bulky to send. They would be good for hand delivered cards. The gray background is stamped with one of the flower images from Fabulous Florets. I used the new Labels Collection framelits die behind the oval. I love these new dies too. They add just the right touch to a card. Then I cut out and embossed the oval with the Designer Frames embossing folder. I stamped the bird card and the 2 bird from the Aviary set. The Pink Pirouette hearts were stamped with a non-SU stamp. Then the Pink Piroutte strip was embossed with the Pefect Polka Dots embossing folder. To make the flowers I punched 3 scallop circles. Two circles were punched with the 1 3/4 scallop circle and the other was punched with the 2 3/8 scallop circle. I did add rhinestones to all 3 flowers. It's hard to see it in the one flower. It got pushed to the bottom of the flower but it's there! The leaves are just cut free hand. I actually decorated the inside of this card too but I forgot to take a picture. Have a great day!
