Jane's Birthday Blog Hop

 Hello friends,

Today, I am here to celebrate Jane's (Jane's Doodles) Birthday! She is turning 46 (shhhhhh.... 😊) . We are having a blog hop where all of us will feature our favorite stamp set.

Speaking of favorite, I have many! I love her stamps as they are very cute, simple and many a times very unique. Today, I am choosing Free As A Bird  stamp set to work with. I love the whimsical, unique, happy, chirpy birds in this set. there are multiple images of flying, standing, dancing birds. They are fun to color and easy to use to create a scene or story on the card. 

Here is a card and tags I made with it.

Aren't they cute? The design clearly says that there are many birds out there but you are the best. The variation in images i.e. flying and standing birds made it easy to create the narrative. Those tiny stamps of clouds and heart help to add to the scene and enhance the meaning of sentiment. 

Gosh, I never realized how much thinking goes in making a card until I reflected upon my thought process. 

While coloring an image is the first and the most common use of a stamp, these tags show how you can use those cuties without coloring. 

Check that stamp set! you can see how loved it is! Those yellow cutouts are masks created from post it notes which i store with the set.

Tags are double layered ! For two of the tags, I cut the upper tag and stamp that tiny leaves on lower tag to add interest .

I hope you can see why I like this set so much.

Following are 2 more cards which I created in the past using the same stamp set. 

The sentiment is from other stamp set of Jane's Doodles but it reflects the attitude of these happy, dancing birds. Don't you think so?

Oh Ship!

Hi there,

It is my turn on Jane's Doodles blog and i have made a birthday card using her Oh Ship stamp set.

The card colors were inspired by those blue and red pattern papers. They have anchor pattern so I thought it will go well with ship stamp. I made narrow stripes and glued them for that nautical feel. This stamp is very versatile. It can be used for baby card and belated birthday too. ' Oh Ship...I missed your birthday' ...:)

Thanks to be here. Hugs!

Better late than never : A belated birthday card

Hello friend ,

I made this card for Jane's Blog.

I used MFT die to cut the window from a pattern paper from PTI. I think the die's stitched detail and black out lines on panel goes well together.  Ink blended the backdrop with oxides and stamped some grass. Stamped sentiment before mounting panel using foam tape. Turtle, cake and party hat is colored with copics. Here is the closeup.

Hope you like it! Thanks & Hugs!
