My Pink Stamper's National Scrapbook Day Challenge # 9

Challenge # 9 was to use Glitz, Glam, and Glitter in the project.

I needed a Thank You card for our Dining Services Coordinator for cooking our Theme Dinner at work last week. She made us delicious fajitas and enchiladas from scratch for Cinco de Mayo! ;) I made this A2 sized card with my Cricut Expression and my Gypsy.


Recipe: 

I used 3 Birds on Parade for my cut outs which were cut at 3.5". My card base is plain card stock from Georgia Pacific. My background card stock is from Tiffany's pack of We R Memory Keepers. The light blue of the bird, and white of the hat is textured paper from ColorBok. The black of the grill and shadow of the bird are from the Non Textured Neutral Pack of ColorBok. The red, dark blue, and yellow were in my scrap pile. The ribbon is from Martha Stewart. I used green Adhesive Faux Pearls from Recollections to add a little something to the ribbon and a faux round bling for the bird's eye...I believe that was from Walmart. I used Crystal Stickles for the glare on the grill.





For the inside of the card, I cut out the phrase "You're Tweet" from 3 Birds on Parade at 2.75".
