Miss You Bird

Another Bird card and it's a Valentine!  This mailbox made me think of the Postage Punch which has not been used for a long time.  The Sentiment on the stamp is "miss you", perfect for the postage theme, but I stamped crooked!!  And as I always say "we can fix this!"  So a Valentine was born!
I used the new Valentine Special set and punched it out with the small Oval punch and layered it on some Real Red card stock and covered up the slanted sentiment!  No one will ever know, except my Blog followers!
 
I used some new Spring Occasions Mini items on this card.  More Amore' designer paper and the Hearts a Flutter Bundle.  I stamped 3 different hearts in Real Red Classic ink on Whisper White card stock.  The Framelits make cutting out images a snap with the Big Shot.  Buy the Stamps and Framelits in a bundle and save 15%!
 The Pool Party edges were embossed with the new embossing folder Needlepoint Border.  You get 2 folders, the stitched scalloped edge pictured and cross stitch.  I popped up the hearts on the Real Red Postage stamps.  Valentine on it's way!!  The Birdie is colored with a Pool Party marker and a touch of More Mustard marker on his beak!
