Here is Cassandra with her tutorial:
Songbird Card
Supply List
1 Daisy Card-Raindrop
1 6” piece Chocolate Shimmer Ribbon
1 Posh Leaf Stamp
1 Flower Trio Stamp
1 Songbird Rub-on
#1: Cut 2 pieces of ribbon 1” longer than you would like your finished branch to be. Wet the ribbon in a bowl of water.
#2: Tie the 2 pieces of ribbon together about 1/3 of the way from one end.
#3: Roll the smaller 2 sections of ribbon together between your fingers to form the thicker lower branch.
#4: Separate the longer portions of ribbons into 4-5 sections. Roll each section between your fingers to create a branch.
#5: While rolling some of these branches split them again to create small forks in the branch. Continue until all branches are created.
#6: Shape your branch and set aside to dry. Once hard and dry you can trim the ends of your branches to add some variety in length.
#7: Once your branch is trimmed and dry you can add it to your card.
#8: Stamp leaves and flowers. For a variety of color on your leaves, ink once and stamp twice.
#9: Add the rub-on bird and notes to your branch.

Use this technique to create embellishments for scrapbook pages, altered projects and cards. Try creating a smaller branch with one large flower or a whole tree.
Thank you Cassandra for sharing this super cute card and technique with us today!
