This week we are sponsored by DeNami Designs, so be sure to check out the CASology blog for details!
I recently purchased a few goodies online from JoAnne's during a really good sale, and my goodies came just in time for this cue. I bought a new Darice embossing folder (I have a thing for them, if you haven't guessed already) and I couldn't wait to use it to frame these cute chickadees by Technique Tuesday. I like the way this simple friendship card turned out!
I added some subtle glitter accents around the embossed frame with a glitter pen...I love that effect. Interest, no bulk.
I'm also going to link this card up to the current Less Is More Week 207 Theme: Friends challenge. (Isn't it amazing that we both randomly picked the same theme this week? Great minds think alike!)
I can't wait to see your FRIEND cards! Be sure to link up your card by noon on Monday (Central time). You will also be inspired by the many ways our Design Team and Guest Designer interpreted the cue this week...be sure to check out their blogs, too!

Aw this is so sweet, love the yellow against the white, so fresh looking
ReplyDeleteJudy I love your long legged birdies !
ReplyDeleteYour embossed frame is perfect with these adorable chicks, and I love, love the happy yellow, Judy! Such a cute card!
ReplyDeleteThose fun long legged birds fit perfectly in you new embossed frame!! This is delightful Judy!!
ReplyDeleteOh, Judy, this is the sweetest card! Love your coloring and how you framed those adorable, whimsical birds! ♥
ReplyDeleteLove how you settled those adorable birds in that embossed frame. Perfectly colored, too.
ReplyDeleteOh, was it an embossing folder? It really looks like a doily paper to me! What a great dimension!!! By the way, how did you color the birds, Judy? Watercolor? Copics? Love the way you colored them.
ReplyDeleteHi, May! I used Copics to color the birds, the only three yellow Copics I own! Y06, Y11 and Y15.
DeleteHi Judy, I really love this! I am using the old Revolution, so it's really unfortunate that I can't do the bigger embossing like what you did! Saving up for either Big Shot or Evolution Advanced ;)
ReplyDeletePerfection, Judy! Those birds are just too cute!
ReplyDeleteI have got to get off my butt and order those birdies! Joyce even told me about the Joanne's sale and I still didn't order them. Grrr! I love your shading on them and how funny that we both went for yellow birds this week! Great minds! :D
ReplyDeleteHey Judy!! I love how tall those birds are. They are so cute. I also love how you embossed the center of your card, such a nice way to centralize our attention.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I totally want those birds too! This feels so dainty and sweet and very, very friendly! That embossing folder is the PERFECT accompaniment! Love it Judy! Xx
ReplyDeleteJudy I love this stamp and it looks amazing in the frame, great 'grounding' too
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing your card with us at Less is More
