The adorable ‘Flying Home’ stamp set (available in wood mount or photopolymer) is one of the new sets found in the Stampin’Up! 2018 Occasions Catalog. Included are the perfect designs to create this cute, spring-themed card!
For this card, I chose the stamp with the nest and birds. The cardstock color is Pool Party, and using a blender pen, I colored the picture with Pool Party, Crumb Cake, Soft Suede, and Wild Wasabi inks. I used the Daffodil Delight marker to color the birds’ beaks.
I used the large oval framelit die from Stitched Shapes Dies to cut out the design and also cut a scalloped oval from Pool Party cardstock using the Layering Oval Framelits, adhering it under the design to ‘frame’ it. I repeated this pattern for the inside of the card as well and added one of the little birds from the same stamp set to finish off the design. Using Dimensionals on the left half of the design, I placed it on the front of the card.
Using the Petal Burst embossing folder on the plain cardstock (both on the front and the inside) adds overall interest to the card.
I used a piece of Pear Pizzazz ribbon on the front of the card, but it is now retired so you may want to use the 3/8″ Stitched Satin Ribbon in Garden Green.
This card would also look great in most any color you choose so give it a try!
