First time playing with this challenge and it was Betty K who inspired me.
Just realised that this would work with the TWOFER CHALLENGE too!

I am finally in the possession of a Cuttlebug... after all these years and I really love it. I got this bird die cut (see below) which I love and looked everywhere for something torquoise until I found a Christmas paper pad which also had red, so that's what I went for.
I love this kind of CAS style, so enjoyable to make.
And this is my second card.
Having die-cuts to work with opens a whole new dimension to card-making!
Have a great weekend,
Jacqueline
love your little bird card..like you I havent tried using dies yet...who makes the little bird die you used?
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you finally got a Cuttlebug, Jacqueline - it is so much fun to use and like you said - dies open up a whole new world for cards (they can also 'cause you spend a lot of $$!!) wonderful cards with you cute little bird!
ReplyDeleteGreat card with that cute bird. Love both of your cards. Thanks for joining us at Merry Monday.
ReplyDeleteI love being able to use die-cuts on my cards so I hope you enjoy your new toy. You now have something to put on your wish lists for your birthday and Christmas! ;-)
ReplyDeleteDarling birdie cards, Jacqueline! Just love the patterns & the fun postage stamp! So glad you found us at Merry Monday!!
ReplyDeleteLove your cards with the cute birds. You're going to love being able to die cut and dry emboss with your Cuttlebug. It will open up so many possibilities for you and make card making seem new again! Can't wait to see what you can create!

Jacqueline,
ReplyDeleteI feel so happy to have discovered your beautiful blog! Thanks for your kind comments.
These cards are both lovely and yet distinct in style. Your pretty edging sets the bird off in style!
You said it, Jacqueline! The fun you are going to have has just risen like a rocket! I remember holding off to get one for a long time, too, and now I don't think a day goes by that I am not either die-cutting or embossing! Enjoy! Your patterned birds are such a clever idea and I love how you have showcased them with your design!! Thank you so much for coming to play in my first Twofer Card Challenge!! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteI absolutely adore using diecuts! You're going to really enjoy using your Cuttlebug! Your birds are amazing, and each card is delightful. The papers, the little branch, but especially those birds are all wonderful. Who makes them? - - I think they're the sweetest things! And thanks for joining us at the Twofer Challenge. Bev
