Vintage Songbirds


Hi everyone, thanks for stopping by today to see my DT post for Craft Consortium using their stunning Bloom Beautiful paper pad and White Wood Decoupage paper.

I was recently at a craft fair and loved all the inspirational projects Anna-Marie had made and decided to mix a little of her style with my own on this card.


I started by mounting my Decoupage Paper onto White Cardstock with Mod Podge. Once dry I tattered the edges and added some stitching with my sewing machine and lace. I stamped my sentiment onto the Decoupage Paper with Archival Ink.


My bird was fussy cut from the inside cover of the Bloom Beautiful paper pad. My flowers and leaves were all die cut from the same paper pad. I love the little accents of gold in my leaves from the paper. My large Daisy I added a Resin Rose to the centre, which had been highlighted with a little Gesso.


I used some foam tape between my layers arranging my die cuts into a floral arrangement adding some pearls and dried flowers to finish.

Crafty Hugs,
Julie x

The flowers and leaves are all Cheery Lynn Dies.
