Blue Birdie Card
Springtime has inspired me to try some new techniques. Here is my latest bird card:

I have learned to fill in a stamped image with colored pencil BEFORE pasting it onto textured paper, which apparently leaves grid marks (oopsie!):

To get a raised 3-D appearance, first I stamped swirls in the corners of the card. Then, for the first time, I tried attaching my stamp embellishment to the base card with foam mounting tape, overlaying the swirls. The foam mounting tape was very easy to work with, and I am definitely pleased with the results.

And, in true Tami Lynn style, I highlighted my stamp with Martha Stewart’s fine glitter.
