A Little Blue Birdie Told Me..."So Sorry You Hurt"


Going strong with the SCS VSN Challenges. This one is my 5th that I decided to combine with the current Verve Mojo Monday Sketch.  Verve is one of my favorite stamp companies and I'm so happy they're back after a long hiatus!

Here's my card featuring a little blue bird per The Bluebird of Happiness challenge at SCS.




I'm not a huge fan of these papers I used, but was trying to make do with all the scraps I had.  Gosh I miss getting DT monthly kits full of coordinated papers and items. Definitely made sitting down to create MUCH easier. I really need to start making my own kits by shopping out of my own stash more.  I think this - the searching all over the place for coordinating patterned papers and embellishments - is what is slowing me down.

Happy I got to do a little bit of paper piecing, but I'm looking forward to having the time to really do it properly. This is just adding color into a stamped image.

1. SCS VSN Challenge Title: The Bluebird of Happiness

I love all the layers and papers and what a great take on the sketch. The little birdie image is so cute and works perfectly for our Wings theme this month at Penny Black and More.
Thank you for joining in with our challenge and we hope you will join us again next month.
