Adorable Songbird Cards Using In Color Glimmer Paper

I think these songbirds are so darn cute! I used the Sweet Songbird Bundle and cut them from the new In Color Glimmer Paper. Which do you like better, Sweet Sorbet or Tahitian Tide?

 
 

In my video I’ll tell you all about these products and demonstrate how to make the cards. Each is a little different but it’s basically the same layout for both. If you stay until the end, you’ll hear about a great promotion Stampin’ Up! has during the month of May, 2022.

 
 

The sentiments in the Sweet Songbirds Stamp Set are so cute and I love those little birds. The coordinating Songbird Builder Punch will punch out the larger bird along with the belly, wing and beak.

 
 

Tips & Instructions

  • Thick Basic White Card Base - 4 1/4 x 11, score at 5 1/2 (top folding)

  • 2022-2024 In Color Designer Series Paper - 5 x 3 3/4, adhere to card base.

  • Basic White Cardstock - 4 1/4 x 2 3/4

  • Punch bird from dark end of a piece of Sweet Sorbet Glimmer Paper, punch belly from light end and punch beak from a scrap of Pumpkin Pie Cardstock.

  • Stamp eyes using Stazon Ink. I laid out the pieces to determine placement. Assemble bird using Liquid Glue.

  • Stamp sentiment at the bottom of the white layer with Black Ink.

  • Stamp branch on white layer with Soft Suede Ink. Stamp leaves with Parakeet Party Ink and stamp some flowers with Sweet Sorbet Ink. Stamp the bird’s feet with Pumpkin Pie Ink.

  • Stamp notes with Black Ink.

  • Adhere layer to the card.

 
 

On the inside layer stamp the smaller bird with Sweet Sorbet Ink. I used my Stamparatus to stamp multiple times to get good coverage. Stamp beak and feet with Pumpkin Pie Ink and stamp notes with black ink.

 
 

This card is basically the same layout only I used Tahitian Tide Glimmer Paper and Designer Series Paper. I stamped the eyes that are closed.

I added a nest instead of the feet to this card. Stamp the nest with Soft Suede Ink on a scrap of Crumb Cake Cardstock and fussy cut. Adhere using Dimensionals.

I didn’t add flowers or notes to this card. You can if you want to.

 
 

Follow the same steps for this inside layer but add a sentiment with black in.
