Stamping with Jen - Perched in a Tree

 Oh my goodness, September is just around the corner.  Where oh where did the summer go? With September looming before us, it also means that Sale-A-bration will be wrapping up soon.  It isn't too late to get your free stuff, but you need to act fast.  Sale-A-bration promotion ends August 31, so less than a week left.  Check out the Sale-A-bration items here.

I used two Sale-A-bration items, can you guess? Yes the Rings of Love Designer Series paper...but also the Aspen Tree Dies...what???? that is in the mini catalogue isn't it. Yes it is, but there have been a few items from the annual and mini catalogues added..so make sure you look!!!

I just love this "chubby" bird.  It is pretty versatile too, it would be perfect for just a general card like this, but also for holiday cards.  I did this curvy pop-up fun fold in our Stamping Symphony blog/insta hop but featured a different stamp set and DSP all together.  I just loved the fold, I wanted to play again

This is a free standing card and you can put panels on the back to write on and decorate.
