Black and White birdie card

I thought I would try somethig a bit different for me today and go monochromatic. I used papers from the Clare Curd pad and Papermania stamps forr the bird, branch and the large flower.

I matted and layered the image panel and the spotted backing paper onto black and silver card and sewed around the edges with my sewing machine and black thread. The smaller flowers were cut from a Claire Curd backing paper and stuck on to the branch with various size foam pads. The little sentiment label is from Papermania. I embellished the flowers with Papermania gem stones and used Glossy accents on the little bird and the centre of the large flower.
As this is my 99th post, I will be putting up a post for Blog Candy next!
Hope you are having a nice Bank Holiday Weekend!

  2. Hi Jane, This is gorgeous. I obviously need to go craft shopping again as I have not seen the Claire Curd papers. The stamps look great too, I wouldn't even have thought about doing that with them, I must try this technique soon!
