I need a few more thank you cards to exchange for the lovely Christmas presents I’ve received and decided to have a little fun with the one today. This one’s very tongue in cheek and I hope that I don’t offend any bird lovers.

Recipe
Stamp set: Aviary (W116956 or C120462), Sincere Salutations (W105156)
Cardstock: Baja Breeze (116207), Pink Pirouette (116203), Soft Suede (119982), Basic Black (121688), Very Vanilla (106550), Whisper White (106549)

Please pop back tomorrow for a tutorial on how to make the punch art cat.

The card base is Baja Breeze and is matted with Pink Pirouette card and Beau Chateau DSP. Using the Stamp-a-ma-jig for placement the stand and the birdcage  were stamped in Versamark onto Whisper White card and heat embossed with Silver EP. The little bird was stamped over the cage with Daffodil Delight ink and a Mini Brad was added to the top of the cage before matting the images onto Baja Breeze card. This was adhered direct to the front of the card. The punch art cat was popped up on dimensionals at the base of the birdcage. After stamping the thank you sentiment in Baja Breeze ink onto Whisper White card it was punched out with the Large Oval and matted onto a Scallop Oval of Pink Pirouette card. This and the small Boho Blossom and Itty Bitty flower (both punched from more Pink Pirouette card) were popped up on dimensionals to make “thought bubbles”.

Hope to see you again tomorrow.
