This card was created for the Mojo Monday 248 and 365 CardsColor Scheme challenges. I used my
2012-2013 Annual Catalog for my inspiration (page 90).
I used my Paper Trimmer to make skinny strands of card
stock. I crumpled them up and used Glue
Dots to adhere them down (plus the piece with the eggs helps to hold it down).
I ran the pieces of Whisper White and Pink Pirouette through
the Big Shot using my Labels Collection Framelits.
My Stamp-A-Ma-Jig helps me to accurately place my nest upon
the branch. I also used a sticky note
(cut roughly in the shape of the nest) to keep the branch from running through
my image of the nest (AKA “masking”).
A snippet of Linen Thread helps to finish off the branch.

In both designs, I used my Blender Pen to pick up a bit of color to fill in the image with a bit of watercolor. In the Noel card, I used my Real Red Stampin' Write Marker to fill in the letters...
The scalloped edge is easily achieved using my Scallop Edge Border Punch... I used the scoring blade on my paper trimmer to make the scores on the Noel card and textured Real Red card stock gives it an added flair.
