Nested Friends - Mother's Day

 
This card was made using the Nested Friends bundle.  

The Nested Friends stamp set along with its coordinating dies will be carrying over to the new catalog that is coming out on May 2, however, it will be sold separately and not as a bundle with that added 10% savings.  The bundled savings is available until May 1, 2023 or while supplies last.

This card has a Thick Basic White cardstock card base, then a Boho Blue cardstock panel followed by a Basic White cardstock top panel.

Using a Blending Brush, Boho Blue ink was lightly applied to the Basic White cardstock top panel.

The branch was stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento ink and then colored using Pecan Pie Stampin' Blends for the limb and Old Olive Stampin' Blends for the leaves. Once colored the branch was cut out using the coordinating Nested Friends die.

Copper Clay and Pecan Pie cardstock were used to make the nest.  The leaves were made using Old Olive cardstock and the leaf dies from the Nested Friends dies.

The Crumb Cake eggs have been stamped with the speckle stamp using Crumb Cake ink and then cut out using the egg die from the Nested Friends dies.  After the eggs were cut out, they were colored using Wink of Stella.

A mirrored image of the bird from the Nested Friends stamp set was used to make the bird on the right hand side of the card.

To make the mirrored image, the bird was stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento ink onto a Silicone Craft Sheet.
Once stamped the image will look like below.
Next place cardstock over the bird image and lightly rub to transfer the image onto the cardstock.
When the cardstock is flipped over the image will be a perfect mirrored image of the stamp and ready for coloring and fussy cutting.
The birds were stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento ink and then colored using Moody Mauve and Wild Wheat Stampin' Blends.  The bird of the left side of the card was cut out using the coordinating Nested Friends die.

The sentiment is from the retired Celebrating You stamp set and has been stamped directly onto the card front in Boho Blue ink.

2023-2025 In Color Dots were added randomly to the card front for accent.

Boho Blue ink, Pecan Pie and Copper Clay cardstock, Pecan Pie, Moody Mauve, Wild Wheat Stampin' Blends along with the 2023-2025 In Color Dots will be available with the release of the new Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog on May 2, 2023.
The inside of the card has a Boho Blue panel followed by a Basic White panel.

The sentiment is from the Pansy Patch stamp set and has been stamped in Boho Blue ink.

The branch has been stamped in Saddle Brown StazOn ink, leaves were colored using Old Olive Stampin' Blends.
