Are you tired of this bird set yet? Well, rest assured that this is the last one for a little bit :) I used the same principle as THIS card, but reversed the cardstock colors so the wings are lighter.I matted one of the tags from Willoughby with brown to really set it off. I inked up the snowy swirl and stamped off before stamping on the tag.
I then added the eyelet and a bit o' ribbon. Everything is popped up on foam tape for a little dimension. To finish it all off, I got out my trusty glitter pen and hightlighted the snowflakes & swirls, the bird, and even the sentiment.
Stamps: Peace, Ready Set SnowPaper: Willoughby SWIC & Cardstock
Ink: Burnt Umber Palette
Other: Copper eyelet, Reece Ribbon, Stardust clear gel pen, foam tape
This particular patterned paper is one of my favorites... isn't pretty? And I'm thinking about this bird (dove)... I believe it would make a great eagle for a patriotic or masculine card merely be coloring it appropriately.
What do you think?

Absolutely gorgeous!!
Very pretty, Barb. That paper line is a favorite of mine too!
And she does it again! I really do love this stamp set and you really have great ideas, the eagle-can't wait to see that one!
This is so pretty!! What a wonderful job you did. I haven't gotten the Willoughby paper as most of the projects I've seen with it haven't really appealed to me, but this is awesome!! Might reconsider it!
I love these cards! rita w
sorry I haven't posted in awhile - crazy crazy times! I've been looking at your stuff though (since I'm a stalker, lol) and I could never get tired of your work!! These birds are amazing and your work is FABULOUS!!
Beautiful card - what a fabulous bird - such a fabulous Christmas card - I adore the colours you've used
I so love all the cards you've done using this set. They are so elegant. I can visualize the bird flying off the card. Keep them coming!
Barb, you are a BAD influence! :) I would've never looked twice at these birds except for your creations. Brilliant - I love how you stacked the wings. It's good to be home from vacation so that I can visit your blog again!
Gorgeous.. Love it! =D
