I apologize for the lighting exposure of the card. For some reason, no matter what I did I could not get the exposure right.
The thick Whisper White base is layered with a Whisper White layer embossed with the Delicate Lace embossing folder to which Balmy Ink had been applied.
The focal point of this card is the birds die cut with a layering square die from a larger image of birds sitting on a branch. The die cut image was coloured with watercolour pencils and a blender pen after which Heat and Stick powder was used to apply Dazzling Diamonds over the entire surface.
After matting with Balmy Blue card stock, it was adhered to a square of Bird Ballad DSP situated at an angle below it. This was adhered to the embossed card front.
A sentiment, embossed with Soft Suede ink on Whisper White, was added below the focal point, A 1/4" glittery pink ribbon was folded below it.

So shiny! The card is lovely. I seem to have forgotten about using the heat and stick product with Dazzling Diamonds and I must remedy that! Thank you for playing along at Try Stampin' on Tuesday.
