Embellish Magazine Color Challenge {featuring Birds}

Hi everyone!

I'm back with a card with birds! First, I thought I had no stamps with birds, but I dug in my rubber stamps drawer and I found this cute Hero Arts stamp. I was more than happy to put it to use. {By the way, I think everyone should have a stamp with birds}.

Here it is:

I really love ledger borders in general, but because I wanted to be true to my promise of taking ordering new crafting stuff a little easier, I decided to make my own! Here's how: with the help of a ruler, I marked a few dots at equal intervals on the left border of the paper. I punched a little circle for every dot. Then I took the "line" puncher and punched a line from the side until it met the circle. Pretty easy, isn't it? I bet it looks even better with a smaller circle punch.

So, this is my card for today. But don't forget to stop by tomorrow, 4th of August, as it's my second Blogoversary! A little giveaway will be waiting for you!
