Birds of a Feather + Prize Patrol

Hi Everyone,

I'm so glad you stopped in today. I had a wonderful specialty class yesterday with one of the most fun stamp sets called Birds of a Feather by Stampin' Up! This set has the cutest types of birds for different holidays through the year. I wanted to share each of the seasons with you and treat one of you with your very own stamp set from me. Read on for more details.

We are gearing up for the Halloween fun and this pirate duck is so cute! The pumpkin bucket is so funny! I took the Kraft Pillow boxes and sponged them with Gorgeous Grape. The little bats came from the Every Season Punch Pack from the Holiday Catalog. Many projects today have pieces from the punch pack.

Okay,  I think I can smell that pie the turkey is holding. He is so cute with the apron on!. This project uses the Come to Gather Designer Series Paper that coordinates with Cajun Craze and Mint Macaron. For all the projects I share today, they all have been colored using Stampin' Blends. 

This Christmas card was inspired by Lisa C. The jingle bells embellishments are great. Can you see the puffy parts of Santa's hat? That's using the Snowfall Accents Puff Paint.

This special Valentines holds a surprise. It's a pull tab flip. I was also inspired by fellow demonstrator Lisa C. She created a similar card using the wire background stamp. I had some heart DSP and decided to use that. 

Sending love shows once the tab is pulled. It is so fun! The card does open up as usual as well with another greeting or place to write your message. There are so many great ways to use this stamp set. Why not try the pull tab flip with each of the birds for all the holidays. 

As you can see, this set has great sayings as well as the cutest characters. Now how would you like to win this stamp set? I thought you might. Here's how:
