This was a very easy card to make because I used the fun paper from a pack by Nikki Sivils that I came across in my stash... must have been part of a blog candy. I was working on another card and looking for the right paper, but when I saw this sheet with the pennants, I immediately thought of this week's
Sketch 115 from Card Patterns. I started with a yellow doily cut with a Cheery Lynn die. Cut the circle from the pattern paper with the pennants and then added a strip of pennants cut from another sheet in the paper pack. Stamped the sentiments from Flourishes "Birthday Pennants" set in Memento Potter's Clay. After I took photos, I decided to cut out some birds ( from the same paper pack) and added to the rope. Finished the back of card with two circles of white CS atttached at the top edge to create the inside of the card.
Showing above: the original card and to the right : With the birds. The hardest part of this card was removing the "chads" from the punched die.
The paper pack by Nikki Sivils is "My Friend Birdie". Used GKD Yellow CS.
No coloring, embossing, and not much stamping to make this cute card.
And what a fun sketch from Card Patterns.
