Nice Little Things

Click to Enlarge

Hi Everyone,  with winter now just around the corner here in Scotland, I have started to feed our Garden Birds once again. This week my Cheery Lynn DT card is inspired by them and the Summer flowers that are now all disappearing.

Let me show you previous layers again on this card to make it easier to understand how I made it.

You will see I layered my French Flair Doily stackers rotating the following layer to a diamond shape and I paper pieced in my Snowflake Doily at the back.


I shaded my leaves,birds and birdbath with distress inks and my flowers were coloured with Copics.


I stamped my verse, added a little distress and accent stamping to soften the sharpness of the white card.
Happy Crafting,

Julie x

    What pretty flowers Julie and I love those sweet birds. Your layered card is beautiful. Keep snug up there in Scotland....despite some rain at the moment it's still so mild in the south of England xx

    Beautiful layering with those wonderful dies Julie and the flowers are simply stunning! Such a lovely sentiment too. It has turned really cold (and rainy) down here in England too, time to get the winter woollies out I think! Anne xx

    Love the sentiment on your beautiful card Julie. The dies and flowers are stunning. Pretty wet here in Ayrshire too and there's a definite change in the temperature.
