Love is for the Birds........


This is for the Stamps R Us Challenge that you can find here. There were several cakes to use as an inspiration and I chose the all white cake. This card actually started out as being "all white". However, it was just looking BLAH! So, I added the black and just a hint of red to it. The white background and the birds have been embossed with the Swiss Dots embossing folder.

The Extra Large Two Step Bird punch from SU is so much fun. This is actually the second card I've made with it and will post the other one in a day or so.

I haven't really decided if this is a Valentine's, Wedding, or Anniversary card yet. I think it could probably be used for any of these occasions. I think it's just romantic looking.

Thanks for stopping by.................

As much as like the look of white on white cards, I think you made a great decision going with the black behind the birds because it really makes them pop. You're right. This really could be used for any occasion.
