tweet hello...

Hey there!  Popping in with a clean and simple card that I made using the August Spellbinders Small Die kit.  I have been looking at their kits for months and finally decided to take the plunge and sign up for the small die kit.   I think the kit is a really good deal at $12.50 and that includes shipping!  Ever since I received them in the mail I have been looking for a way to use the set.  When I saw this week's Freshly Made Sketch layout (thank you to Karren for picking my card for the last challenge to receive an honorable mention!) I found my opportunity.   I had already die cut the cute little birds from the die set from a yellow polka dot paper from My Mind's Eye and so I found the matching papers and die cut the additional pieces from that.  I trimmed down some PTI rustic white cardstock, added some score lines and then stamped my sentiment (from the MFT set A Tweet Hello) in VersaFine CLAIR nocturne ink.  I layered up all the die cuts on the panel, adhered it to my card and I was done. Still in my clean and simple mode, lol!  Adding this to the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge of anything goes.

Have a wonderful day!

Supplies:  Cardstock:  PTI rustic white; patterned paper:  My Mind's Eye; Dies:  Spellbinders; Stamp:  My Favorite Things; Ink:  VersaFine CLAIR
