Hey All 🙂
I’m off on yet another trip tomorrow morning. This time to New Jersey to have some fun at a Stampin’ Up! team event. So today I am busy packing and prepping my vehicle for the drive.

Stamped the Unmounted Friendly Words Wheel on a 3.5″ x 4.5″ piece of Sahara Sand card stock using Soft Suede ink.
Here is a link to a post I did on Unmounting Wheels https://zindorf.splitcoaststampers.com/2009/07/28/tool-time-unmounting-wheels/.
Stamped the branch from the Stampin’ Up set Cheep Talk using Crumb Cake a few times.
Stamped 2 of the Stampin’ Up Aviary bird cages using Cherry Cobbler ink.
Added circles for chains using a Cherry Cobbler marker.
Stamped the branch using Crumb Cake ink one more time towards the bottom of the card stock to balance things out a bit.
Stamped the Birds using Basic Black ink. Colored the birds in using a Basic Black marker to darken them.
Sponged Crumb Cake ink at the top, right side and bottom of the card stock.
Sponged Soft Suede ink at the right side of the card stock.
Added a 4.5″ square piece of Not Quite Navy card stock. Stamped the branch on the left side of the card stock using Basic Black ink. Tip: When stamping on multi levels of card stock have a marker on hand that matches the ink you used in order to fill in the gaps that are left in the images.
Filled in the gaps in the images using a Basic Black marker.
Sponge Basic Black ink around the edges of the card stock.
Added a 4.75″ Basic Black panel, 4 7/8″ Sahara Sand panel and 5.25″ Basic Black panel. Also added gold brads to the main image panel corners.
Here is the finished card measuring 5.25″ square.
May your weekend be one to remember.
Until my next post. . . . . . . .. . . .
Huge Hugs,
Michelle
