Greetings! It's Tuesday so you have Kathi here to share a project with you.This week's TFS team focus is SPRING! Spring brings blooming flowers, trees, and nesting birds sporting their breeding plumage!
Here's my card created with the Lighted Florals Clear Stamp Set 709 by AALL and Create, the Crea-Nest-Lies XXL Double Stitched Rectangle Die Set by CREAlies, and the Glitz Spray Set (Cactus Gold) by Lindy's Gang.
Use Tuxedo Black Memento Ink by Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko to stamp the Bird with Flower image from the Lighted Florals Clear Stamp Set 709 by AALL and Create twice — once onto Bristol Paper and again onto repositionable sticker paper.
Heat set the Bristol Paper version then color it with Copic markers. Use a white gel pen to add catchlights to the bird's eye and to add some highlights to the berries.
Fussy-cut the sticker paper stamped image and adhere it over its counterpart as a mask. Brush or sponge light blue dye ink over the masked image to create a blue sky background. Use a a water-filled Fine Spray Mister by Spectrum Noir to mist the image panel with water to add some drops and speckles to the background. Heat set the image panel and set it aside.
Cut a piece of black textured cardstock with the largest die from the Crea-Nest-Lies XXL Double Stitched Rectangle Die Set by CREAlies. Position the third largest die facedown on the rectangle die-cut and secure it with low-tack tape. Run this sandwich through your die-cut machine to cut out the center portion, creating a frame.
Use the gold marker from the Colorista Essential Metallic Marker Set by Spectrum Noir to edge the outside of the frame.
Spray the frame with Cactus Gold from the Glitz Spray Set by Lindy's Gang and heat set.
Adhere the frame over the reserved image panel. Cut a piece of black cardstock to 7" x 10", score it at 5", and fold it to create a card.
Adhere the framed image panel so that it's 1/8" from the top and left side of the card. Trim the right edge to even things out.
