-Scrap pieces of Whisper White for Bird & Marina Mist to stamp the sentiment.

Directions:

--Apply Marina Mist to the inside of the top of the Woodlands Embossing Folder with a sponge brayer.
--Insert the WW Top Mat into the Embossing folder and  Emboss.
--Stamp the bird from Best Birds stamp set in Memento Ink.
--Die Cut the bird (see hint).
--Color the bird using a sponge dauber with Marina Mist and Sahara Sand Ink as indicated.  Color Beak and Feet with Pumpkin Pie Stampin' Write marker.
--Stamp the sentiment (from Best Birds) and the sentiment frame (from Labels to Love)on a scrap of Marina Mist CS with Marina Mist ink.
--Punch out sentiment using Everyday Label Punch.  
--Pop-up the bird and the sentiment using dimensionals. Place where indicated.
--Attach  a rhinestone to the birds eye & a couple on the sentiment label.
--Attach White Mat to Marina Mist bottom Mat & then both to the card Base using tape runner     

HINT:  When I stamp the birds from Best Bird, I stamp several and die cut them.  Then I can just pull one out and color it whenever I need one.
