Father's Day Birds
I've been wanting to create these fun birds with stamps for a while now, luckily my Dad has a lovely sense of humour so this will be his father's day card. Uniko's mid century modern florals stamp set was perfect to use for each bird. Circles over stamped with some of the smaller stamps for their wings and tail feathers, some being heat embossed with silver pearl EP. I added legs, eyes and beaks with a black fine liner pen.

On the front of the card blank I brushed speckled egg oxide ink through Uniko's wonky stripes stencil as a background and added the bird panel on the left with a darker matt layer. Dad still loves his garden and plants so chose stamps from Uniko's Papercraft Society Box organic bouquet set. Leaf spray and tiny flower buds stamped, watercoloured, die-cut and added on the right hand side.
The sentiment is made up from word stamps from Uniko's Bee Happy stamp set leaving only 'ther' for me to write in with a black fine liner pen.

Papercraft Society Box 51
