Just a Note - C4C #283

C4C283_2015apr25


Happy Saturday, everyone! Hope you’ve got a fun weekend planned and I’m here to kick it off with this card using this set from MFT’s April release, MSTN Tweet On You. Lynn has challenged us to use a bird on our card or project today and what better than this darling little blue bird?

I started with a piece of Neenah Classic Crest Cover, Solar White Smooth, 110lb card stock and lightly stenciled Berrylicious dye ink through MPD Scallops Stencil. I figured the tree coloring would cover it up and I was right. I then stamped my tree, bird, and sentiment, which is from You’ve Got Mail, with Black Licorice Hybrid ink and colored the images with Copic markers. I popped that up on a Grout Gray card stock base with foam mounting tape and completed my scene as follows: the sun was cut from Daffodil card stock with Blueprints 21 Die-namics, the clouds from Sweet Tooth card stock with Cloud Trio Die-namics, the grass from Sour Apple card stock with Grassy Edges Die-namics, and the fence from Sweet Tooth card stock with Garden Fence Die-namics. I finished off with a few music notes from MSTN Tweet On You.

Another sentiment from the set was stamped on the inside.
