* Artsystamper: Happy Birthday

Hello!

Happy Monday!

Today sees the start of a new challenge at the Artsystamper Challenge Blog. 

Each challenge runs for two weeks and starts on the first and third Monday of the month. 

The theme for this challenge is Happy Birthday.

I hope that you can find time to join in the fun!

The winner will receive the stamp set of their choice from TheArtsystamperShop. The Winner and Top 3 will receive a badge for their blog.

Beverly Cole’s selections offer stamps and sentiments in each set as well as pre-coloured images for easy, last minute cards. Why not take a moment and check out what she has in store!

Here is my card:

I used the Vintages Roses and Birds digital set for the images and the Wintery Paper Pack for the sky background and the lavender backdrop. I distressed the edges of the papers and inked them. I added some stamping to the lavender paper to add a little more interest.

The image of the birds on the blossom branch was printed out onto the sky background and then again separately twice, so that they could be fussy cut and decoupaged. Each time the fussy cut edges were lightly inked and the blossoms shaped.

The sentiment is from the Outdoors Man digi set - it is distressed and popped on foam tape.
