January Card Club - little birds on a branch


 It has been two years since I hosted Card Club and last night I had girls over for a creative evening of fun!!!  We followed all the public health protocols and it was so nice to be together and making cards.  
Card #1 - these fun cards started with coordinating elements - a decorative background, a wavy label (SX) and a large oval.  The branch is actually a tree die cut (TH) trimmed to the single branch that spans the width of the oval.  The little birds were punched (SU), sponged on their edges and eyes and beaks added with a fine tip black marker.  The wings were embossed and glued on.  The birds were added to the layered card fronts using 3D foam tape.  The final touch was a little tulle embellishment which I created by folding a small piece of tulle (1.75" x 3" or so) into an accordion and then tying it off in the middle with crochet thread.  We applied them with glue dots to the right hand side of the branch.  Lots of fun papers and textures on these very versatile cards!!  Therese
