simon says stamp: thinking of you

, , , ,

 
Hi crafty friends, it’s time for another challenge over one the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog. Thank you for joining us in the Thanks/Thanksgiving challenge last week and we sure hope you will join us this week too! 
 
This week our challenge is Thinking of You and I used this challenge to finally try out my Tim Holtz Patchwork Bird die to make a card for a friend that loves birds (and purple) to let her know I was thinking of her. To create this card, I made a background of Distress Oxide Sprays and then stamped over them with the plaid from the Lumberjack set, leaving ink off some bits of the stamp, so the pattern was more random.

I had so much fun putting this little birdie together. I used all kinds of surfaces to give it a patchwork look including the Metallic Paper Stash, the Kraft Paper stash,and even some Halloween Worn Wallpaper. I sanded and inked all of my papers, and then pieced the bird together. I added some “stitching” with a black pen to give a little more contrast to the text piece.

I arranged the bird on a few of the Branches and added a sprig of pine from the Large Funky Festive set
