Birdie Friendship Card

 Today's card used white die cuts that I colored individually.  Heck, it's easier to die cut a bunch of white than finding the right color card stock and putting the right die on that paper.  So today, I pulled out my water media mat and some of those precut dies.  

Feathered Friends 4 is the bird and I chose Blending Brushes to color Summer Sky, Deep Ocean, Navy, Lemon Drop and Tuxedo black.  Once it was dry I glued all the parts together with Bearly Arts Glue.  So my bird needs a nest and the Grapevine Wreath is perfect - and I also had that precut in white card stock, so I grabbed two.  Cup O Joe was applied with a mini blending tool and really got into all those nooks and crannies.  Now I need a background...I pulled out the Tumbling Leaves stencil with blending brushes and Fresh Pear and Grassy Knoll.  Stitched rectangles trimmed that perfectly in my Gemini Jr.  Lastly, I need a sentiment so I chose one from Friendship Blooms and I stamped in my MISTI with Amalgam ink, then Versamark and clear embossing powder was melted.  I haven't had much luck with black embossing powder and sentiments so I like to add clear over a black stamped sentiment.

Have a great day and keep on crafting!
