Boy did I have fun
So here we have
4 (Colley) Calling Birds.
Image is by Digi Stamp Boutique. I love how cute they look singing away.
After the first disaster
I decided to leave the images black on white card which works much better.
Paper is by Kaiser craft ( mag freebie) and has lines of music notes on it
Backing paper is matted onto brown card stock.
2 dies used: Sizzix scallop circles 657552 and Spellbinders Romantic Rectangles.
Pearls from my stash and sentiment generated in word.

I first made this shaped card about a month ago for a Christmas card that is now in Oz. I got quite a few comments on it so decided to make it again here using different colours.
I saw the card being made on Create and Craft and this is my version. Tweaked a bit more now.
Gold shimmer 300gsm card stock used to make card bases .
White glitter paper from a pad £1 at Ally Pally this yr.
Silver Decorative tape. 3 in pkt from Poundland.
Spellbinders Romantic Rectangle die and sentiment generated in word.
Pearls from stash.
Now I bet your wondering where the rings are? Well flip the front over and Ta Da!

As soon as I saw this I knew I had to use it as it reminds me of a little girl I use to know!!
Coloured with Promarkers, pearlescent chalks. and a gold gel pen.
Sentiment is a KanBan topper.
Turned slightly to show the different layers and the front flipped over.

Sometime we all have a little trouble coming up with great ideas - and we don't care for the card we just made. But we try again and voila. I think your birds turned out great this time. Your five golden rings is quite interesting in style that is. Thanks for joining us at Paper Makeup Stamps.

Wow on all of these. I'd sure have liked to see the one you threw away! Bet it was pretty too. Can't imagine you doing a card that was not! Each one of these is a winner, and I am awed that you are able to produce so many that are this gorgeous. How DO you do it? Hope YOUR back is feeling better. Also wishing you & yours a Merry Christmas, and I'm sure Santa will be very good to you. Take care, stay warm,TFS & Hugs.

Fabulous, but then your work always is! Thank you for playing along with us over on the Frosted Designs Blog, Silver and Gold challenge! waving hi from the hills of North Carolina ♥
Both are great. the girl with the hula hoop rings was so unexpected! Great image!
Even with all this work to finish, I see you are even finishing the inside of these cards as you make them...well done you.
That is going on my list of goals to do the inside at the same time I make a car...otherwise I am running around trying to make my inserts at the last minute!
Beautiful, thank you for joining us over at the Crafting Musketeers, Fran (DT) xxx
Mrs. A, your two cards here are sheer delight, not to mention sooo clever! Your calling birds - wonderful - and the five gold rings - gave me a good chuckle!! Fabulous creativity, indeed!!
