Hello Friend

Here's my card for today's SCS clean and simple challenge. This week's challenge was to create a project inspired by the great outdoors.

I used one of my favorite sets, Papertrey Ink's Little Bitty Bird, for the challenge. I stamped the branch on a blue circle, then filled in the leaves with a Copic marker. The bird outline image was stamped above the branch and filled in with a matching felt die cut. I added a small clear crystal for the bird's eye.

I made a Spring Moss card base and ran a strip of coordinating Happy Spots patterned paper down one side. I topped it with a strip of Aqua Mist ribbon, then set the circle on the card. A die cut felt cloud finishes off the card, adding some balance to the design.

Materials Used:
Little Bitty Bird stamp set, Dark Chocolate ink, Spring Moss cardstock, Happy Spots patterned paper, cloud and Little Bitty Bird dies, Aqua Mist grosgrain ribbon, Harvest Gold felt (Papertrey Ink); Baja Breeze cardstock (Stampin' Up!); marker (Copic); clear crystal (Imaginisce); white felt
