Flappy Birthday Card

Good evening everyone :-D

Today I made this card I called Flappy Birthday Card.

I used From the Heart Stamp 'Flappy Birthday Birdbrain' digital stamp. It includes 4 funny sentiments. This is Stamp of the month September 2014. 

I decided to use the I {heart} sketches  sketch080 with a twist for my card layout. 

I used white card stock paper and three different patterns of digital paper to create this card. 

I paper pieced an image. For this one I used 2 identical images. After printing on a white card stock paper, I colored one image, fussy cut it, colored edges with black fine liner and glued together pieces I had. 

 

I also added some transparent varnish on eyelids, beak, belly dots and balloon to get glossy accents. Look how varnished pieces changed color. This is fun to me. I never know what the result will look like. :-D

 

 

I added three punched out scalloped circles on card front and one inside. I made them with my scalloped circle puncher. 

I placed one layer of patterned paper inside of card and a layer of white card stock. 

Card dimensions are 105 mm x 148 mm (4 1/8" x 5 7/8").

• From the Heart Stamp 'Flappy Birthday Birdbrain'
