Free as a Bird Vintage Inspired Monochrome Birthday Card. Share it on a Sunday #8

Good Morning Everyone,

I hope you are well. Did you remember to move your clocks forward?? We don't have to because all our clocks do it automatically, which always confuses me first thing! Haha.

Today it's Sunday, so that means another installment of the Share it on a Sunday Series. This week Donna picked the theme Monochrome, and after a little bit of debating I managed it.

As always, I will give you the tutorial for my project, then link to Taffy Crafting and Crafty Karen Designs so you can see what they both made for this theme.


So here is the card I made. I decided us Brown and Cream for my Monotone look.



Measurements

Very Vanilla Cardstock
1pc - 4 1/8" x 11 3/4", scored at 5 7/8"
1pc - for the die cut
Some scraps for the flowers and leaves plus sentiment

Early Espresso Cardstock
1pc - 3 1/4" x 5 7/8"

Crumb Cake Cardstock
1pc - 2 1/4" x 5 7/8"

First of all take the large very vanilla piece and fold along the score line, then sponge the edges with early espresso ink.

Take the early espresso cardstock and rip down tbe length on each side and add to the right hand side of the card. Repeat this with the crumb cake and layer this on top.

Now stamp the birds on the branch onto some very vanilla and cut out using the appropriate size nested shape die. Colour the image in using the same blends. Add this to the card front to overlap the ripped panels.

Stamp the happy birthday sentiment  and cit out, sponge edges lightly and add to the die cut under the birds.

Now on the scraps, stamp a hand full of leaves and large and small flowers with tbe early espresso ink. Colour these in using soft suede and crumb cake blends. Fussy cut all these out and add to the card towards the top left

Here's a list of all the supplies I used in today's card, click on the images to head over to my online store.
