Birdsong. Isn't that a sweet word? Singing birds are one of my favorite sounds in the mornings. The gorgeous paper pack of mintaypapers I used for today's card is called birdsong - - and I just love it!
I needed a get well card and thought these feminine colors and vintage images were soothing and made a pretty combination. For a focal point, I inked a rose in several layers of colors and surrounded it with subtly stamped leaves.
I trimmed the scripty sentiment with scissors along the curved lines, and used a die to cut the thin strip of the second phrase. Sequins and Nuvo drops are the simple embellishments.
Freshly Made Sketches provided the layout inspiration for this design. After all my cute critter cards, it feels good to make something a bit fancy today. You can be pretty sure I will be back with another post tomorrow. I find it hard to concentrate on many activities lately, how about you? But stamping holds my attention and using my hands to create is better than staring at my phone.
I am so glad that you keep coming back! Have a great day!
Be yourself
Delight in your craft
Make something beautiful!
Supplies used:

Such soft, comforting colors; a beautiful card!
Such a lovely get well card, Cindy!!
These are pretty papers, for sure. One of my favorite pads. It's sometimes hard to know what to do with these gorgeous Mintay papers, but you figured it out. Perfect ink color and stamp to feel like part of the paper. I've bought several new paper pads from different companies lately. Just can't leave it alone!
