ID: Apr/19 - Easel Macaw - ECD Just For You - You Were Born With Wings - Celebrate" card
size: 7"w x 5"H 

Created: April 4, 2019
Modified:

I recently got a stamp set that had these lovely philodendron leaves... so had to make a card using them.

I'm using a die "Just For You" 2pce set and "Flourished  Frame" 2pce set from Elizabeth Craft Designs, also available on Quietfire Design HERE and HERE

 I'm also using a sentiment stamp from Quietfire Design ("Just For You - Celebrate" 4pce set)

And a clear stamp set "Soar Collection" 8pce set from Quietfire Design also available on Elizabeth Craft Designs HERE

Scored and folded my white cardstock to create my easel structure. 

Cut a piece of white cardstock same size as card, sponged all over with Distress "Salty Ocean" lightly to create a cloudy sky.

Die cut the flourished rectangle frame, inked with a green pad and embossed with Emerald Creek "Verdigris" embossing powder. Positioned it on the cardstock and stamped the quote using Versafine Clair "Warm Breeze" and clear embossed. Adhered to card front.

Created a silhouette image of the philodendron leaf and cut with my electronic cutter from white cardstock. Stamped (Kaiser Craft "Paradise Found") using a two tone inking technique. 

Electronically cut the Macaw, stamped (Starving Artistamps "Macaw 2") using a green and blue Distress pad. Moved color around and added more Distress pad color.

Adhered the leaves and bird to card front.

On the floor:

Cut a piece of the blue textured cardstock, and a piece of the green slightly smaller and adhered both together, then onto the card floor using 3D foam tape to act as my stopper.

Stamped the "Celebrate" using Versafine Clair "Warm Breeze" on white cardstock. Trimmed down adding a picot and adhered to a piece of the blue cardstock, then onto the card floor.

I had an extra leaf so adhered that as well...
