Just Us Girls #765 - Die Week

It's Die Week at Just Us Girls and our host Carol M has chosen this prompt

Want to make a wager there will be a thousand cards in the gallery this week?  That may be a little over the top but I mean die cuts and a birthday card?  Who doesn't use those all the time?  

I love these Tropical Friends from Spellbinders.   SSS's Privet Branch on a blue panel gave them a great place to perch.  All of my word bubbles were too large so I stamped the sentiment from Hero Arts on an Altenew Apothecary Label and trimmed off three corners. 

What dies will you use to make a birthday card?  For inspiration, please check out what the Design Team has made.

Color Throwdown #794

Hey there!  I'm glad you dropped by.

It felt good to actually make a card again.  Anything you've been seeing was created a while ago for my design team challenges.   Now I have a card that I made today for Color Throwdown.  Well one caveat.  The bird was already made and in the die package but that's what inspired me to make this card.

First the edges were taped and then Altenew Olive ink was applied around the edges.  I also used it on  SSS's Privet Branch.  The little chickadee is from Honey Bee's Winter Birds. 

With tomorrow being Memorial Day here in the states, our area is having a parade, a service and a band concert.   Our summer cottage is in a veteran's community.  Rain is in the forecast but let's hope it stops before 10:00 am so we can remember those who lost their lives in the service of their country and honor those who continue to serve.
