So as I mentioned before, the "Sprinkles of Life" stamp set is crazy, versatile. There is so much play room with this set and did I mention it has a co-ordinating punch!?! I love how you can create an ice cream cone, a cupcake, a tree, an apple tree, a rain cloud, a branch, a basket and so much more with just one stamp set! For my card today, I decided to create a sky view, with tree branches. I told you it was versatile!
First I started out by masking off some clouds. I used the coordinating Tree Builder punch for the cloud shape and sponge daubed Soft Sky ink all around them. I love this technique! I added in two branches: Soft Suede ink on Soft Suede cardstock and teardrop leafs of Pear Pizzazz and Old Olive cardstock.
The stamp set comes with a cute little birdie and I thought this mama bird needed a nest, so voila! Do you like my robin eggs? I created them with the punch as well, i just trimmed the tear drop and added in some speckles with my pool party marker on to the Pool Party cardstock. The nest is created with the 1-1/4" Burlap Ribbon. All I did was frayed and frazzled it a whole lot and then tied it up into a little bunch. So Cute!
To finish my card off and to make my card and greeting work together, I repeatedly stamped the cloud image in Pool Party ink onto Pool Party cardstock.
