Miss Mad Stamper: Swirly Bird

I might have gotten carried away with creating cards using Swirly Bird. I made 6 different designs. The ideas just kept coming, so I kept creating! I didn't even touch the dies that coordinate with this stamp set! Can you even imagine the possibilities? Many of these cards came from Pinterest and I tweaked them to make them my own.

The white space on this card is striking. Looking at it now, I do wish I would have added a bit of red on it. Oh well, it is still a pretty card. I used my Stampin' Trimmer to score the left edge of this card. I also fussy cut the bird and added a dimensional to give him some pop.

I love these big flowers! I'm not sure I like the way I stamped the leaves. Oh well, this card will still bring a smile to someone's face.

Creating a sailboat is also a possibility with this stamp set. Each component of the boat is a different stamp so you can create this boat in may different colors and styles. One thing to note about this card. You do want to stamp the words before you run the white through the embossing folder. You won't get a good image if you try to stamp after the paper has been embossed.

I used the swirls to create a background on this card. So simple to do. I know I forget about simple sometimes. Need to remember that simple is still striking.

Kites are another possibility. I did fussy cut the kites and tails.

I used the splatter stamp to create my own background. I stamped it in Cherry Cobbler, Balmy Blue and Pacific Point. It really created a pretty background.

What else can you think of for this stamp set? There are so many possibilities. I think I just touched the tip of the iceberg with what I created compared to what else you could do with this set. I'm a bit sad that I didn't play with it sooner. Maybe I will learn my lesson and use my sets faster so that I can enjoy them more. That is a challenge I have set up for myself. Stay tuned to see how I do (assuming I get to posting them! Ha!)

Happy Stampin'!
