Bird Ballad Floral Thank You Card

Bird Ballad Floral Thank You Card

As I was using up some designer paper scraps the other day, this Bird Ballad Floral Thank You Card is one that I came up with. This floral pattern is so pretty I think and punching out one of the printed birds on another sheet of the designer paper as a focal point makes for a nice card.

I wasn’t crazy about all the sheets in the Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper, but I thought most of the patterns were really pretty. This paper, on the card front, with just colored flowers, I thought was especially pretty and easy to use on many cards. You can purchase this Bird Ballad DSP on the Last-Chance List at a discount until June 2.

The card base is Petal Pink, one of the coordinating colors of the paper. Then I added a layer of Pool Party underneath the floral designer paper. I punched out the bird from another sheet of the DSP. Then the bird is layered on a Stitched Shapes Die and popped up on Stampin’ Dimensionals®.

Before adhering the designer paper to the Pool Party layer, I adhered a short piece of Whisper White 1/4″ Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon from the top of the bird image around to the back of the floral paper almost as if the bird image is an ornament. Then I took two strands of the same ribbon together and tied a bow which makes a fluffier bow, especially with this thin ribbon, and adhered it to the top of the die-cut with a Mini Glue Dot or two.

The greeting is from the Peaceful Moments Stamp Set and is stamped in Pool Party ink. Then the greeting is die-cut with one of the Stitched Nested Labels Dies.

This Bird Ballad Floral Thank You Card is a relatively simple design and easy to make so try it with your scraps of designer paper!
