It is time for another
Flaunt It Fridays challenge! This week is challenge #17 and we are asking you to flaunt the 3 Birds on Parade cartridge. Specifically we are flaunting the "disguise bird." When I saw this little guy my first thought was that he was perfect for a surprise party invitation. I decided to make a criss-cross card. I used a light blue cardstock for the criss-cross part of the card. I then cut a couple of triangles 1/4" smaller than the flaps, from a patterned paper. The little bird is cut at 3," using both regular and shadow features. I flocked the main part of his body with navy colored flocking. I added crackle accents to his wings and glossy accents to his sunglasses and I used a grey pen on his mustache. The "shhh..." sentiment is from Smiley Cards and I added the three dots using George and Basic Shapes and welding it all together on my Gypsy. I also used my Gypsy to weld the "it's a surprise" sentiment, which is from Mickey Font. Both the sentiments are cut at 1." The inner card is cut at 5 1/4"x3 3/4." I used a shimmery blue cardstock for the outer layer and white cardstock for the inner layer, which is 1/4" smaller than the blue. I punched a hole in the top and added a polka dotted ribbon. I placed a brad through the hole as well. I finished it all off with some doodling on the sentiments.
There is my project, I hope you all like it! I also hope you check out all the other projects that the rest of the design has come up with! Now head on over to
