Create with TLC: Birds

Greetings!

Happy Wednesday to you.  I hope your week is moving productively along.  Mine has been very very busy.  I have been doing some late Spring cleaning only to discover that I am a paper hoarder.  I have a TON of paper and have been going through the stacks (literally stacks) to organize and take inventory of it all.  I am hoping to sell a lot of it, because it is overtaking my house.  I teach cardmaking classes so I would buy paper in bulk and I guess I didn't realize how much I have accumulated over the years.  Wowza!  I am checking in to using my Etsy store, but since it isn't "handmade" by me I wonder if I can sell it there.  Hmmm??  I will investigate.

In the meantime, I would like to share a card I made using a beautiful (in my humble opinion) image that I received from Create with TLC's Ocotber Club.  If you have never joined one of the clubs, you should because Paulette packs them with all kinds of awesome goodies.  She has a mini club going on right now.  Check it out here.

Here's my card using the beautiful birds...


Beautiful Birds

I kept this card really simple.  I layered on dp onto a 6x6 cardbase.  I used my MS lace punch to cut a strip and tucked that under a frame I created using my Cameo.  I mounted the image (pre-colored) on the frame and added Stickles to the tail to add some sparkle.  I finished the card off by added some pearls in the corner.  Very simple, but lovely I think.

I will link this up to this week's Show it off Sunday link over on the Create with TLC blog.  I would love to see your work there.

Thanks for looking and commenting.

  2. Candy, your card is gorgeous. I just love what you do with your Cameo. I think it is normal to have lots of paper - my husband tells me I could have my own Scrapbook store - the truth is he is right.
