Birdsong Anniversary

I made this wedding anniversary card using an old Woodware stamp - one of the first stamp sets I bought when I started cardmaking many years ago.

To make this card I used:
     6" x 6" white matt card blank
     Woodware 'Birdsong' and Clearly Besotted 'Modern Calligraphy' stamps
     Momento Tuxedo Black and Versafine Satin Red & Crimson Red ink
     Red & brown Promarkers
     Snippet of dark red pearlescent card and white matt card
     Wink of Stella

I trimmed the white matt card to 5" x 5" and placed it into my MISTI.  I stamped the birdcage on the top left corner using black ink and then stamped 'congrats' in the lower corner with Satin Red ink.  As the sentiment looked too bright, I stamped it lightly with Crimson Red ink.  The panel was then layered onto a red pearlescent card and attached to the front of the card blank.   I stamped onto another snippet of white card using black ink and fussy cut them before colouring them with brown and red Promarkers.  The hearts on the birdcage were also coloured with a red Promarkers.  I added Wink of Stella to the hearts and sentiment and then attached the birds to the front of the card with small foam pads.
