Beautiful Birdhouse

If you are here for the Sparkle N Sprinkle blog hop CLICK HERE

I am using this card for a special post for 


Sin City Scraps is a scrapbook and stamp supply store here in Vegas. They carry a wonderful variety of crafty yumminess and hold crafting meet-ups that are FREE!!!!

So I am sharing a card I recently made. I really wanted to try out my wood coloring skills. I still and not 100% about it but I think it looks okay. Sin City Scraps wanted me to share a stamping technique. I wish I had something special to really share about stamping. I thought about watercolor stamping or water stamping too however couldn't find my watercolor paper. 



Therefore I stamped the image, did a fussy cut, and some fun coloring. Coloring is one of my favorite things to do as most of you who follow me knows I love to do. I also have branched out into more projects which I thank everyone for their support on. 

Now for this card I am using Sparkle N Sprinkle stamps, glitter, and embossing powder

Stamp Credits:
Other Supplies:
Cardstock – White, Kraft, and Designer cardstock
Fancy Oval Die
Pop Dots

INSTRUCTIONS: 
1. Cut white cardstock for A2 size card and the designer cardstock for a mat.
2. Use the "Beautiful" stamp to emboss in Mulberry embossing powder on white cardstock, cut out for 3/4”x5.74”, rip kraft cardstock as a border.
3. Stamp "Birdhouse" on Neenah cardstock, color with copics, fussy cut out, and add Purple Fusion glitter.

This is really pretty Shanna! Wouldn't have thought to glitterize a birdhouse! But it works really well!
