Newly released Jayne Netley Mayhew Bird Stamps

Hi folks! While my pc was out of action I was busy making some more samples for Joanna Sheen. I made this card using the newly released Jayne Netley Mayhew rubber stamp Collection, 'Blue Tit'. Such a gorgeous stamp set to work with.
The backing paper that I used for the inside of the card was printed from one of Joanna Sheen's floral CD roms (sorry I forgot to make a note where it was from) I used my Martha Stewart Doily punch to create some delicate layers at the top of the card. I cut some acetate to size and adhered it behind the doily layers covering all the joins with the large ribbon bow.
I painted the bird and the flowers with Lyra aquacolour crayons. The sentiment is also part of the set. I adhered this to the inside of the card, under the acetate an added some sparkly dots to the corners.
I hope you had a chance to see the launch show on Create and Craft yesterday afternoon.
Ciao for now!

Hi Sandra.
Unfortunately, I missed the C&C show which is a shame as your card is beautiful. What a taste of Spring. The colours are so delicate and soft, just beautiful.
