Two Memory Box Perched Bird Die Cards…

Hi everyone…so many times we need a thinking of you card…when words aren’t enough, maybe a simple thinking of you card will help. Tragedy comes to everyone and when you can’t be there, a card is something tangible we can do.

This card is so CAS (clean and simple), truly lives up to the name and for once didn’t take any time to make!

I doubt that it even needs any explanation! I did use a little foam mounting tape under the bird. The white die cut is glued directly to the A2 card base.

I stamped Thinking of You from the poppystamps Picnic Plaid clear stamp set in the MISTI with Archival black ink. I’ll link everything up at the bottom of the post.

Then I die cut the Perched Bird again from Mixed Media card and watercolored it with Zig Real Brush Pens. The frame from the Splendid Rose Frame the same.

The sentiment this time is from the Memory Box Big and Little Words clear stamp set, stamped in the MISTI with Archival black ink.

I added some twine to doll it up a bit…

See that blue-ish vase in the picture? My daughter was going to toss it! I love it! lol It’s ceramic…perfect picture prop for this card! lol

Thank you for stopping by today. Happy July!

Very nice! These pretty cards could work for any occasion! Thanks for sharing!

Hi Pam love the card anything with birds on it I love. My friend just lost her husband over the weekend like you said you never known when you need a thinking of you card. Happy 4th of July. We just celebrated Canada day on Monday perfect weather Christine

Oh, goodness, both cards are beautiful! I was perfectly happy with your kraft and black very simple card, really admiring how great it looks with so little effort, sigh… I can seldom do that. Then your colored card scrolled into view and my heart skipped a beat. I love it so much! Your vase and flowers are absolutely the perfect photo props for your card. Good thing you grabbed that vase!

Awesome cards Pam! I really love the pop of color with the second one! Love that bird! Happy 4th!

both cards are just beautiful, I do love the silhouette it looks just beautiful in those colors. Your second card is wonderful the way you colored the bird!

I am in love with this little bird! Love these Pam – the neutral one is incredible – and Mr. Robin on the second one with the beautiful flowers!!!

I love both cards but the second one is my fav. I always love how you color and i love your beautiful sweet bird. Oh, and I would have kept that vase for myself too, lol.
