And then there were 6!

So finally I have finished the card set I've been working on.  Here is the fourth card of the set (the first three are in pervious posts!).  This one was made using the current sketch from CPS.  I'm still using the cute birdie stamps from Pink Petticoat for all of these cards.


Here is the fifth card in the set. Made using the current sketch from The Sweet Stop.  I love how this one turned out.


And finally the sixth card in the set....now this one I have made several variations of in the past.  It is NOT my design, but for the life of me I can't remember where I copied the idea from! I hate not being able to give the designer credit - if it's yours please let me know so I can give credit where it is due.   It is such a cool idea to use a 1 inch circle punch to make up the tree.  My previous cards made using this design had green for the grass and blue for the sky, but I think it looks pretty cool with unconventional colours too!


Here is a close up of his legs! Because I wanted to raise him up on dimensionals I gave him embroidery floss legs!


Here is the full set, sorry for the poor quality picture!


I hope the recipient likes it when it finally arrives!  Thanks for stopping by and have a great day. I 'd love to know what you think of the cards, let me know with a link to your blog - I'd love to come and take a look at your blog (I'm nosy like that!!)

  1. OMGoodness! This set of cards is absolutely adorable!! I love how you used the bird as the common thread and carried it all the way through, and the colours you used are lovely! Whoever receives this is going to be SO excited (and so lucky)! All the little creative touches (like the embroidery floss legs) are wonderful too! Great job! :)

  7. Jo - great job with all the cards - they make a stunning set all together and the recipient is one lucky girl - I just hope she USES those fab cards - I give sets to a girlfriend and she doesn't want to use them LOL. I always tell her I'll make more, I'll make more...!
