Krafty Bird

I made this quick card using the layout from Mercy's Tuesday sketch challenge. I found that this is a great layout for using up some of those scraps of patterned paper that you just can't bear to throw away.

The main image here is the bird from the Always stamp set. I stamped it in Blue Bayou ink on Very Vanilla cardstock, then layered the image on a piece of Chocolate Chip cardstock.

The scraps of paper are all in shades of blues and greens. I used some of the Soft Sky Prints Series paper, along with some Summer Picnic and Fall Flowers scraps. They're placed on a kraft cardfront. Yes, I'm back on a kraft kick again . . .

Materials Used (all from Stampin' Up!):
Always stamp set, Blue Bayou and Chocolate Chip Classic inks, Very Vanilla, Chocolate Chip, and Kraft cardstock, Soft Sky Prints Series, Fall Flowers, and Summer Picnic designer papers, silver brads, dimensionals
