A stunning Bird


The card may not be stunning but this new bird stamp is! I won it on Cat's blog. This stamp is going to make some stunning holiday cards once I get creative but for now you get to see the less then stunning version that I whipped up! A pretty simple layout but effective. The stamp is one of Inkadinkado's newest ones to be released. I stamped it using Adirondack "espresso" ink. The background paper is by Adornit "Carolee's Collection and the striped paper is from Sandylion Papers "Celebration Stripes". To brighten it up a tad I added some 1" wide peach ribbon that has been around here for awhile. Wording is from Stampin Up and one of my favorite script.
I love bird stamps but I seem to hoard more of them that I actually use but I don't think I will have that problem with this beauty.
Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your evening.
