S-T-R-E-T-C-H Out the Celebration

Here we go with the month of MAY! While that seems crazy as this CRAZY bird card ~ it's MAY!  

And for us here in SC it means we have survived Pollen Season too!  

But we're kicking off the month with the Crazy Critter Challenge blog first thing this Sunday morning.  My card below was made with the Artisan Joggles stamp, The Bird Ernest.  Isn't he a trip!



To make this card, I started with stamping the image to the left side of my Neenah 110# cardstock and then the sentiment to the right. I used Copic markers for coloring and then die cut the image and the mat with Gina Marie Designs Nesting Labels Two.

I covered the A2 sized card base with a stripped foiled paper then added the yellow/orange mat.  I took the darkest blue Copic and ran the color around the edge of the bird colored image to give the appearance of another die layer.  Then I was able to securely add the colored image to the card front permanently.

Be sure to visit the Crazy Critter Challenge blog to see the other Design Team cards and to enter your card for the monthly challenge.
