Bailiwick Birds

Thank you all so much for joining in our Poppystamps Blog Blitz today! I made this bright bird card background with a brand new delicate design, Bailiwick Background. This versatile die can be used in so many ways, all year long. I love the delicate curvy vines, and the tiny pairs of budding leaves. Everything about it feels like spring, so I used bright, fresh colors for the blooming flowers and birdcage. Maybe these two lovebirds are on a tropical romantic getaway.

This fresh new die can be yours as one of the amazing prizes from Poppystamps! All you have to do is leave a comment on today's design and tell us where YOUR favorite romantic getaway is located. Then come back again every day and leave comments on all the great new projects from our design team. You have until the end of the blog blitz to leave comments on all your favorite new designs and increase your chances to win even more fabulous dies and surprises. Thanks for stopping by!
Live your life in color!

Gorgeous background die! Love the delicate detail on it!
Fave romantic getaway… I have always dreamed of staying at the Rainbow Lodge up near Tahoe. Such a beautiful setting. Maybe someday…
Lovely delicate card! I love staying by the sea in an isolated cottage but a lighthouse would be fabulous and my dream getaway.

What a pretty background die! Nice job!
My favorite romantic getaway is with my husband to this super-cozy harbor hotel in New Buffalo, Michigan! It’s beautiful!
Love the tropical color scheme! Favorite romantic get-away is the sailing trip around the British Isles that we’re taking in May.
What a beautiful and such a delicate Die! My favorite romantic getaway was seeing Niagara Falls during our Honey Moon 24 1/2 years ago. But I also greatly enjoyed Yellow Stone Park and seeing Old Faithful erupt right outside our Rustic Hotel window. Then there were the majestic Grand Tetons, Mount Rushmore, and the Grand Canyon. Oh and then there was our two trips to Paris and our exciting ride up the Effiel Tower and our Romantic Dinners overlooking the beautiful River Seine (with the Cathedral of Notre Dame in the background). Then there was the Cliffs of Moor in Ireland. Oh boy we have been blessed with the opportunities to travel to see so many romantic places!
Lovely card.
I love cruising-not having to pack and unpack, scrumptious food and little tuckaways to while the time away.
Your card screams spring!
Sweet birds.
Very beautiful die – made the perfect background for your lovely card !!!
Romantic getaway, anywhere in Hawaii for sure. Love this delicate die and the size. This would make so many beautiful cards like yours.
It was a bit late last night when I commented so I missed that you wanted my romantic getaway. Hmmmm, the fjords of Norway are just so beautiful. A fjord cruise, peaceful, beautiful, such fresh clean air. The perfect place for a romantic escape. Your card design and colours are so gorgeous I just had to pop in for another look…..
Great love birds…favorite get away has to be something tropical….warm!
So beautiful….love the colors and that background is amazing. My favorite place would be San Francisco…so magical.
What a beautiful die and card! I have always wanted to go to Italy and so has my husband – I’m still hoping that we might get there one day.
So wonderful. So many great moments in our 48 years of marriage. To pick just one is impossible. Lots of great memories from a shopping trip in New York to the French Riviera.
Your lovely card has a great tropical feel to it Michele, so pretty!
Lovely card!
What a stunning card!
The bailiwick die is on my list!
So cute!!! Beautiful card…
Such a SWEET card! And that vintage bird cage is on my next order!!!
What a versatile background – I love it.
What a lovely card! I like the birds and tha background ornament
Delightful!
Beautiful card and the Bailiwick background die is gorgeous!
Beautiful! I love everything about this card!
Fun Card! The curvy vines of this die cut are really pretty. Can’t wait to start using some of the new die cuts.
The new background die is beautiful. Very cheery and pretty card design, too. I love Bermuda and Hawaii.
Dear Michele,
I am a newbie to this wonderful world of stamping, dies and die-cutting. It is like a wonderland to me right now 🙂 This really is a delicate and lovely design.
My favourite getaway is not, perhaps, everyone’s cup of tea. The fields nearby are home to deer, foxes, badgers, rabbits and little mice. There are beautiful trees including ancient oaks, and English apple trees laden with fruits. Wild roses, meadow flowers of all kinds. That is where we go to ‘getaway’. And it’s dog-friendly too, so our old woofs can have a little scamper round every day.
Thank you for the chance to win : )
Great background. This will be a very versatile die.
Love the background die! Such a sweet card!
What a beautiful card – so versatile for weddings, anniversaries – just a romantic getaway and an “I Love You”! I can’t wait to make one for my husband – 37 years coming up on February 4th! Thanks.
Hawaii!!!! Need I say more 🙂
Aw how sweet, and a great example for those big background dies.
Ohhh what a pretty card!
I love to be by the sea, so anywhere I can hear the waves sounds good to me!
That die is so beautiful. My favourite romantic getaway is just to go to our local national park, find an out of the way spot and have a picnic lunch.
My romantic getaway would be being by the sea anywhere.

Wow, what great colors! The card is charming and I love that Bailiwick background die.
So talented, what a fresh and happy feeling card!
Nice, cheery card, love the colors.
Love to win this die….Nice card…
Oohh. I live this new background die. My favorite spot is Cancun and that’s where we are right now enjoying the sun!!!
Very delicate card.
Great ideas,
Sue
Gorgeous card! I love that new die. My fave romantic get-a-s taking a trip in the fifth wheel with my hubby of 39 yrs!
Such a sweet romantic card! My favorite romantic get-away is a winter visit to Alderbrook Resort neat Belfair, WA. That old lodge is beautiful any time of year, but in January they leave it all decked out in white holiday lights and decor, making it even more inviting. Plus they offer great winter deals 😉
Love the card. My favorite romantic place is where we spent our honeymoon – ‘The Mirage’ in Las Vegas:)
It is a lovely bright cheery. Card x
What a beautiful card… & on that note I think I’m just going to have to pick up some holiday brochures. Take some time off to make more cards !
Such a lovely card you’ve created, very romantic feel to it! I am really loving that background and those hydrangea flowers are on my wish list! My favorite romantic getaway would be to go back to Arizona..my now husband and I traveled from Tombstone all the way up to Flagstaff..we learned so much about each other on that trip and knew that we would be together forever..that was 12 years ago and we’re still madly in love!
Love the card. And the Bailiwick die. I can see so many possibilities with this die. My favorite romantic getaway is a Bed and Breakfast. We just celebrated our 31st anniversary last week.
The bailiwick design sure is intricate and delicate.My fav romantic getaway is a jungle resort in India.So peaceful and in tune with nature!
Beautiful:)
San Diego is the place to get away to, sometimes I even take my husband! Thanks for sharing with us. Blessings, Lisa
Love that delicate background, it’s very beautiful. My most romantic getaway is to Antalya in Turkey where we spent our honeymoon on the shores of the Mediterranean.
Very cool card!! You did a GREAT JOB showing off these dies!!
Oops. I was so excited to post my comment that I didn’t mention my favorite romantic getaway!! After 30 years of marriage, I would have to say anywhere my husband and I go together would be my favorite place to be. 🙂
What a lovely card.
Sweet card 🙂
Such a delicate background die – I can see many uses for this. Love the way you gave the birdies freedom to sit on the vines!!
WOW! I just love this card. It is SO fun and colorful. That new background die is fabulous. Thanks for the chance to win it. 😀
I would love to have this background die. It’s lovely and I like how you used it so effectively.
Beautiful card! Love the two love birds on there tropical vacation. Your flowers are beautiful. I would love to see Greece, Venice again, just so many places. Thanks for sharing.
