Show and Tell

I was so excited to receive my stamp sets in the mail from Sparkle N Sprinkle that I sat down and started stamping all over everything!  When I finally came to my senses... and the slightly demented giggling stopped... I set about creating a card using the Shabby Chic stamp set. 
 

 
To create the window behind the bird I used Spellbinders Labels 14, one of my favourites, and Basic Lattice, a new die I purchased after trying and failing to weave my own lattice out of small strips of paper.

It must be so thrilling to unpack your own stamps and get crafty with them. Love your CAS card. That lattice background looks amazing, too!

Enjoy the stamps. Love that lattice, I have spent lots of time weaving, so maybe should invest in the die. hugs, Ursula

love the way you added the lattice too as an extra layer of interest. I would love to know what company you bought the lattice die from.

So beautiful with this background.
The stamp of the bird is great, that's why I chose him myself for my februari B-card.

Greetings,
