Chipboard Birthday

Good Afternoon! I hope everyone is having a good week so far. I have another card to show you today that I made a while back. All of the supplies I used for today's card (except for the "Happy Birthday" sentiment and pearls) are from the October Key Ingredients from Taylored Expressions. I have never used chipboard on a card nor have I ever used Maya Mist before, so this specific Key Ingredients intimidated me a little at first...LOL.

The first thing I did was spritz the birdcage and bird wing with Avocado Metallic Maya Mist, then set them aside to dry. I was so surprised at how easy the mist was to use and the metallic shimmer it has to it is awesome. I traced the bird onto the patterned paper, cut it out, and adhered it to the chipboard. After the glue was dry, I sanded the edges and sponged it with a little Certainly Celery ink. The sentiment is from the Fresh Flowers set and I added a chocolate pearl for the bird's eye and a few below the sentiment.


Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful day!
