Wings of Friendship Card Swap

The Wings of Friendship card is something I put together for a card swap. Our challenge was to use our new items from the 2009-2010 Idea Book and Catalog.

Whisper White was folded into a sort of "Z" shape to create the "cage". When that little fold is opened the whole design is visible. BigShotz was used to cut a half circle from the short fold cage and a smaller circle cut from "Bermuda Bay". I used Crushed Curry Cardstock to cut the scallop and the Bird from the Wings of Friendship stamp set. Before I used adhesive to close the "Z" I cut and glued 3 strips of Gold Elastic Cord to create the bars on the birdcage. I used Melon Mambo ribbon and ink for the flower. The flower and the Bird were attached using Stampin Dimensionals. The Whisper White assembly was attached to Bermuda Bay Cardstock to complete the card. Melon Mambo cardstock was cut using the Oval Scallop Punch and Melon Mambo ink for the sentiment.
