Hi out there. I have a brand new In Color to show you today and I’m still playing with the “Betsy’s Blossoms” stamp set. Did I say I love the little bird in this set? And, the Create with Connie and Mary challenge gave me the chance to try a new card size and style.
Great sketch isn’t it?
Here’s what I did with the New In Color, Midnight Muse and the New Comfort Cafe designer paper.
The card base measures 4-1/4″ x 4-1/4″ square and the added banner makes is 5-1/2″ wide so it will fit tidily inside our Medium Envelopes(107301). I used the “tap dancing” technique again for the bird’s wings. Love that technique, it adds just that little extra to an image.
