This one’s for those days… 🐦💩 Featuring products from the new Friend Like You release by @simonsaysstamp (plus a favorite sentiment from an older release), this card mixes humor and heart. The googly-eyed birds bring the funny—especially the one hanging on for dear life—and the soft ink-blended background keeps things calm.

A Pop of Parrot Personality
This bold and playful card features products from Spellbinders’ Cheerful Chirps collection — and it’s all about that tropical flair! 🦜 I used layered die cuts to build this colorful parrot, blending vibrant greens, blues, and limes for a punchy, dimensional look. The rich navy background adds contrast and texture with a bamboo-inspired embossing pattern that grounds the scene without overpowering it. A few leafy accents and a simple “hello” sentiment complete the look. It’s the perfect anytime card with just the right mix of color, character, and handmade charm!
