~ La-La Land Crafts - Hello Spring ~


Happy Friday Everyone!

Today's Team Friday challenge is spring.  I thought this sweet little baby bird waving from La-La Land Craft's "From The Herd Clear Stamp Set" was the perfect symbol of spring.


~ Step by Step ~
- Stamp and color birdie.  Trim around image.
- Die cut Spring Tree out of white cardstock and color.
- Die cut 3 or 4 Twigs out of white cardstock and color.  Cut twigs in half and build a nest.  I used a glue pen to adhere twigs together.
- Die cut "Hello" twice out of white cardstock.  Color one "Hello" and add sparkle before adhering to the other "Hello." (I used Spectrum Noir's Clear Sparkle Brush Pen).  Adhere them offset from each other using a glue pen. 
- Cut white cardstock at 4 1/4" x 11" and score at 5 1/2" to create card base.
- Die cut four pieces of white cardstock using the largest scalloped rectangle die from the Scalloped Rectangles Die Set
- Stamp one of the scalloped rectangles with the checkered background from the Just For You Background Stamp Set using Squeezed Lemonade Distress Ink. 
- Trim the scallops off one of the rectangles leaving the stitching.  Using the second largest circle die from the Double Stitched Circles Die Set, die cut a circle out of this piece.  Emboss this piece using a stencil from the Magical Sparkles Layering Stencil Set.  Adhere this piece to the checkered background piece using foam tape.
- Trim off the scalloped edges from the other two scalloped rectangles past the stitching.  Adhere these scalloped edges on the back of the checkered piece staggering them.
- Die cut the Filigree Border Die out of white cardstock.  Adhere to the above piece.
- You can now adhere this to your card base using foam tape in the center but adhesive to the sides of the scallops.  
-Adhere tree to card using foam tape.
- Cut slits along the sides of the wings to slide birdie into nest and adhere together.  Adhere to card using foam tape.
- Adhere "Hello" to card using foam tape.
- Add rhinestones.


The nest was so much fun to create using the Twigs Die.  Doesn't the baby bird looks so adorable sitting in his nest?!   I really love how it looks like the sun is shining through the leaves of the tree!


Adding sparkle to the "Hello" really makes it stand out!

I hope you enjoyed my tutorial and it inspires you to create a card with all your La-La Land goodies!!!
