Hello! Have you seen the new dies from poppystamps called sashes. This one stays connected to the card piece on both ends of the branch when you die cut it. Then you slide another piece, in this case the largest Memory Box Stitched Rectangle, under the die cut branch and bird. HERE are the other new sash dies.
I die cut everything in watercolor paper and watercolored with distress inks and a water brush. I smooshed the stamp pad on my craft mat, picked up the ink with the water brush and painted. Salty Ocean, Mowed Lawn, Forest Moss, Gathered Twigs, Ripe Persimmon, Rusty Hinge and Dusty Concord ink pads and/or reinkers.
I edged the fawn with Gathered Twigs Distress ink and the mini ink blending tool.
The sentiment is from Memory Box (inked with Versafine Black Onyx ink) and so is the Wildflower Landscape die.
The Quiet Bird Sash and Woodlawn Fawn are from poppystamps.
There’s a little ‘dew’ in the air.. hehe. Distress ink spatters and some White Linen spray that I unscrewed and hit the cap with my finger to get some white spatters.
Here’s another version… a quick ‘just a note’ from the sweet birdie!
a little closer so you can see how the sash works…
I think that’s everything… THANK YOU so much for clicking over! Have fun splashing some ink around! It’s been raining here and everything is so green! Gotta love Spring! I better get outside and enjoy the sunshine, I heard it could rain again today! ttul!
Shopping links…click to see the products I used. I was just looking over the tools page at Starlitstudio and it’s amazing all the cool stuff there! Check out the new Tacky Roller Tool! YES!
p.s. I have to tell you, I LOVE how good the stamp shammy cleans off Versafine ink. Just get it wet, ring it out and clean away. No baby wipe fibers on the stamp! Hip Hip hooray! It cleans other inks too but you know how tough Versafine is… well…not anymore! yay!

Love love this card Pam…and I did not know about the sash dies…are more to come…? Super idea.
Thanks for the intro…always love your amazing cards.
Wow Pam, these cards are beautiful! I love your colors and techniques. The dies are amazing and the deer scene looks just like the field behind my house with deer grazing. The weather has been in the high 70’s and 80’s. Most of my flowers and plants bloomed way too early. I think my dogwood tree is burnt. Hee, hee. I need to catch up on getting these wonderful dies. Thanks Pam for sharing your pretty cards and ideas.
Love these cards………….and the hints on new products! More stuff that I think I need-haha! I need to get some cards made-been so busy lately-no time!!!
Love your scene, the watercoloring on it is so pretty, I have not tried watercoloring my die cuts just used alcohol markers, I will have to give that a try 🙂 These new sash dies are neat. love the different ways you showed to use them!
Great cards, Pam, the water colouring is lovely. Clever idea the sash dies – more must haves!
Awesome creations, my friend! What a fun die! Thanks for sharing 😉
Interesting die with lots of possibilities. Love the scene you created and of course your water coloring is always perfect.
Oh these are so cute! I love that little bird! Love the watercolor background on the first card, and love how you “inserted” the blue behind the branch in the second one! 🙂
Pam,
Another home run! Such a lovely creation.
Well isn’t that snazzy! What will they think of next!? Love both your projects! The watercolor so cool and the other one a lovely CAS card! ♥ Sue Kment
Ohhhhh, both are lovely, but I just LOVE the second card and the sash use!
Oh that first card is amazing!! I love the second one too, but that first one is so pretty! I love all the beautiful watercoloring and splattering you did! Such a pretty little scene you created there!
So glad you like the tacky roller too! These are happy and cheerful cards Pam – love this bird die, and that Fawn is my favorite deer die. Your watercoloring is always amazing Pam!!
Two very pretty cards, Pam.
I adore that bird sash die. Haven’t played with mine yet, though!!!
