I'm sure you are having a LOVEly time viewing all the inspiring projects using Taylored Expression stamps! You may even be on your second cup of coffee!! And if you just left Jennifer's Blog then you are hopping right along!! I knew with the theme of "LOVE" I would be using this adorable stamp from the Wings of Joy set. Here is a wonderful sketch available for us from Sankari Wigman to get the creative ideas jump started:
Here is my card! Lots of color and LOTS of layers!!
The image is first stamped with Memento, Rich Cocoa and then colored with Copic Markers. I then used the Liquid Pearls (Petal Pink) to accent around the birdcage at the top and bottom. I replaced the holly with a heart which I cut out of the designer paper, added Stickles (Icicles) put Glossy Accents over it and then after it dried, attached to the top of the cage. The Scallop Circle is a punch from Marvy Uchida that I used a Copic marker to color the edges, then added the Liquid Pearls (Flamingo) to embellish.
Here are the list of ingredients not mentioned above:Designer Paper: Kaiser Craft - Candy Lane Collection (Mango Drops, Strawberry Sundae, Sherbert);
Card Stock: Bazzill, Neenah (bright white)
Embellishments: Ribbon, Key Ingredients Kit, TE
Tools: Spellbinders, Nestabilities Standard Circles, large; Cuttlebug; EK Success, Diamond Scallop Border punch
Finished card is 4.25 x 5.5
