Oh, I love this Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper from Stampin’ Up! It is just one part of a whole suite of “beautiful.” I made this card with the DSP, the Free As A Bird Stamp Set, and a pair of Paper Snips.
I used Thick Whisper White Cardstock for the base. Then I cut a 5-1/2″ x 4-1/4″ piece of Bird Ballad DSP. To that I cut an angled section out of the middle. It’s a little less than 1-1/4″ wide. Next I glued strips of Mossy Meadow behind the two pieces, and glued it to the card front. The piece I cut out became decoration for my envelope front.
On a scrap of Thick Whisper White, I stamped four of the medium flowers, one large flower, and two buds with Memento ink, then colored them with my Blends. The bird is part of the DSP and I cut it out with my Snips. Here you can see the 1/2 sheet that I cut the bird from:
A bit of glue, some Dimensionals, careful placement, and tiny pearl centers added dimension and pretty to the card.
This Bird Ballad Suite can be found on Pages 91-92 of the new Annual Catalog, which went LIVE yesterday!
All products are from Stampin’ Up with the exception of the birthday sentiment, which is from Lawn Fawn in a set called Scripty Sayings. You can buy all of the Bird Ballad Suite elements HERE. I would be so grateful to have you buy from my online store! ***By the way, the stamp set is bundled with the Stitched Nested Labels Dies, Product #151123. If you buy them as a bundle, you will save 10%. These dies, in my opinion, should be a staple in every craft room. I have used mine several times already! They are truly a “Must Buy!” And you can click on the image below to buy it!
Tell me what you think! Is this suite going to be your first to purchase? Or is there another one that has caught your eye? I would love to hear which one is going to be your first/next purchase!
Enjoy the rest of your week!

Oh Karen, I love this card. I didn’t think I liked this suite, but It is rapidly wearing on me. I like how you overlayed some areas over the sentiment strip.
Have a blessed day.
