Cardinal Birthday

How fun to play with a stamp set and make a card for a different occasion than the one the stamp set was intended. For example, I used the Beauty of the Season (Christmas Stamp Set) images and combined them with the Simple Sayings II to create a birthday card. What do you think?

Stamps:

   Beauty of the Season

   Simple Sayings II

Paper:

   Crumb Cake A-2

   Real Red 5-1/4 x 4

   Basic White 5 x 3-3/4, 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside)

Ink:

   Archival Basic Black

Markers:

   Crumb Cake

   Delightful Dijon

   Real Red

   Soft Suede

Technique:

   CAS

Accessories:

   Adhesive

First, I stamped my images on the Basic White panel.

I then colored them, using markers:

   Crumb Cake - Tree Limb

   Real Red - Cardinal, Berries

   Delightful Dijon - Cardinal's Beak

   Soft Suede - Branches

Next, I stamped the sentiment.

I then adhered the panel onto a Real Red panel and then onto the Crumb Cake card front.

Lastly, I adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.
