Apple Blossom Birds




Hi All!  Here's my card for May's FTHS Digital Stamp of the Month Challenge.  For this month's progressive challenge, the From The Heart Stamps set is Apple Blossom Birds.  Besides the image, the set includes a wonderful selection of sentiments including the one I die cut and added to the card with pop dots. 

I colored the sweet birds and flowers digitally and paper-pieced the branch.  Then I merged the image on top of SU!/MDS digi paper in a Word document.  I also cut out (the old fashioned way) three extra apple blossoms and adhered them to the card with pop dots for extra dimension.   Finishing touches include a die cut border and a Jollee's Botique fence embellishment.

Thanks for stopping by.  Enjoy the holiday weekend!
