I was so thrilled to be able to showcase this realistic bird stamp on my card today. I began by creating the background using the Silhouette Branch Background inked in rust on a rust card base. Using the Birthday Sheet Music stamp to make the next layer, it looked so good, that I then decided that this would be sufficient for this card's sentiment.
The bird was stamped in Momento Tuxedo Black ink and I used pencils for coloring medium. What a refreshing change for me, I've been in a Copic rut and the pencils created a much softer look on this rustic card.
I added some distress ink to the edges of my die cut medallion and after fussy cutting my bird, I put him on the center as my focal point. Some twine and a little birdhouse charm made this complete.
There are only a couple more days in our Stamp A Day Give Away, so remember to comment for a chance to win!

Karin,
This is the prettiest card ever! I really like how you distressed the medallion and penciling in your bird with color was the perfect choice.
Very nice card. I love the little birdie. The sheet music in the back is great.
Birds are a favorite of mine and this one sang to me when I saw it. So beautiful and the little touches set it off!
Holy Smokes!! What a beautiful card! Your colors are wonderful!
Bird looks real enough to fly away:>)
Love putting birds and music together, since our feathered friends give us such sweet natural music everyday! What a delightful card!
I can actually hear the bird singing on this beautiful card.

What a versatile card. Very nice.
Great coloring on the bird.
The coloring of the bird is superb. I stay away from birds as I can never make them look realistic. You are best in that arena. Also, try using a piece of twig as the branch for the bird to sit on.
Beautiful card. :)
Cute card and I love that stamp.
A beautiful and clever card. Love the bird stamp and the die cut medallion.
great card
I really like the soft look created by your pencils on the bird. The distressed ink on the edges of the medallion is a nice touch as well. Is the yellow design in the background a cutout?
I guess I am going to be digging out my pencils.
This is a great looking card. Love the music background.
Great card - the music paper as the background is a perfect touch!
cute bird
love the music in the background and the bird is amazing...not sure if this went through the first time...Jan Pippin
So pretty, Karin! Love the music bg and twine accents. Wonderful little medallion shape behind your sweet little bird.
