I have a fun little birthday card that has flowers, a bird and a stenciled backgrounsd. It is easy to make and can be customized with any colors you like. The greeting can be easily switched out to anything you need it to be. All you need is some inks, stencils, a few dies and this cute stamp set.

It’s my turn to host the Featured Stamper Challenge FS987 so a big congrats to Sara! She has such a fun, clean little gallery & I cased THIS card. I kept the layout because I liked it so much. I used different images, dies & used stencils to create my background strip.

For my card, I started by coloring the flowers, bird & birdhouse then die cut them & popped them up one layer. Then I set about making the stenciled strip. I used the rectangle stitch die to cut the long strip then started w/ the swirl stencil & used blues & one purple ink. A light blue was blended across the entire panel. The large circles of the bokeh (2 part) stencil was used with a little darker blue then the smaller circles using the darkest blue ink. Finally, the falling snow stencil was used w/ white pigment ink. I used a heat tool to make sure it was completely dry before attaching it to a piece of white & die cut w/ the largest stitch rectangle. I also added a couple of blue border on top & bottom w/ the stitch edge cut die. The greeting was stamped below before I attached all the images.

Here are the Copics I used:
