The cardbase is 'So Saffron' and i have used 'Versamark' and the large flower from the 'Vintage Vogue' stampset to create a subtle background. The bird was created from 'So Saffron' card using the 'Two-Step Bird Punch', the branches were also created using the same punch, from 'Old Olive' card scraps and these have been glued onto a square of 'Whisper White' cardstock, with the sentiment (also from the 'Vintage Vogue' stampset) printed in 'Soft Suede' ink. This has been mounted on some 'Soft Suede' card and then placed onto the cardbase.
I just love using punches. They just speed up a project and look so clean and sharp! Why not check out the range of punches Stampin' Up! offer. They can be found on pages 104 - 106 of the 'Idea Book and Catalogue'. If you would like to make an order, just email it over: amyjtidd@gmail.com I'll be home from Tanzania very soon and would love to take your order!
ooh my favourite punch :). Great choice of colours...
ReplyDeleteLoving this Amy, and great minds must think alike as I did this card for a make and take last weekend at a workshop! I popped it on my blog today and added a link to yours so people could see it in the gorgeous So Saffron and Soft Suede. Mine was in Blushing Bride and Crumb Cake, just like in the catty.
ReplyDeleteHope Tanzania is / was fab!
