PP736 Theme from Joanne

Happy Sunday, peeps!  Hope your weekend is going well so far!  Joanne is our Paper Players hostess with a fun theme!  I love pulling out old goodies:


In this case, I pulled out some old DSP; normally I would pull out an older stamp set, but I wanted to use the new Spring Corners stamp set to create a birthday card, so I opted for some DSP as my "old"!  Here we go:



You really can't get much easier than this card! The background papers as well as the bird (fussy-cut) are from last year's SAB papers called Flight & Airy...not really that old, but I haven't used them since, LOL!  I added a Spellbinder's tree branch and stamped my sentiment directly to the DSP using Misty Moonlight ink:


I hope my sweet friend likes it!  And I hope you'll play along with our "Old and New" challenge!  It's always fun to have new things, but we all have those treasured goodies we won't ever part with---so get them out and let's see what you create!  Share them with us at the Paper Players!!!

That was such pretty DSP too - I have some still as well. Those corner sentiments really are lovely. Enjoy your week. :-)

I see why you wanted to use this corner sentiment, it's fun! Cute card, LeAnne!

Love it! I am enjoying my new bird feeder. So far I've enjoyed mama and papa cardinal, purple finches, American Goldfinch and mourning doves. Unfortunately, today the cowbirds found the feeder...they are piggies and don't like to share with the other timid birds. I need to play in this challenge but I don't feel like blogging!

I love this so much! I know how much you love birds and this is just perfect. The DSP and that little bird just go together perfectly! I love the way you added the sentiment around the edges!

Beautiful, LeAnne! This card is stunning in its simplicity. I love birds, so it should come as no surprise that I absolutely LOVE this card. I think I still have some of this paper hoarded away. You have inspired me to use it!

What a great mixture of old and new LeAnne - I've always had a soft spot for those papers!

LeAnne, I love this. I love how you put the sentiment in the corner and used a monochromatic color scheme. You utlitized the background paper to perfection and your little bluebird on his perch is the perfect focal element. Love it!
