Bird Talk Birthday

Made two birthday cards with my old Tim Holtz stamp and die set, Bird Talk 2.

Background layers are from my stash. Just added some stenciling and sponging. Used distress twisted citron for the zig zag and dots. Sponged the edges with distress abandoned coral.

Stamped bird, hat and balloon with distress abandoned coral, fossilized amber and festive berries inks. Used coloring pencils to add more color. 

Sentiment is stamped in Versafine onyx black ink. Used a Faber-Castell PITT pen to add  "sister" and the string to the balloon.

Used fossilized amber for the stenciling and used mermaid lagoon for the sponged edges. The bird is stamped in mermaid lagoon and coloring pencils were used afterward.

Sentiment stamp is from Verses Rubber Stamps.

Thanks so much for visiting!
