I’ve been a bit obssessed (see below) with the Bird of the Woods Layering Stamp set and coordinating dies and wanted to make a few cards for the hop. This bundle is so fun and very versatile.

Card featuring Altenew's Bird of the Woods Layering Stamp + Textured Burlap background.

I stamped 8 different color combos and have two in this blog post. I will be blogging about a few more variations in the future.

For the card above, I used the following:

I love this springy clean card too! I think this would make a wonderful Mother’s Day card.

  7. Hi from California. I was finally able to see your adorable cards, Karen! The link wasn’t working from Altenew, but after trying it from several different bloggers, I managed to get part of your post, but the little circle thing is still rotating and only part of your post appears. Hopefully, it will be fixed soon so everyone can see the birds, which are colored beautifully. The first one is my favorite!
