Friday Sketchers - Sketch 37 & My Time To Craft Challenge 47


It's snowing again outside, the perfect excuse for lots of crafting, as you see from the number of cards I'm making this week :). So, on to the next card...
Friday Sketchers http://fridaysketchersblog.blogspot.com/ has a very useable sketch by Carole this week. Also, My Time to Craft http://mytimetocraftchallenge.blogspot.com/ has the theme "A Little Birdie Told Me" which also fits this card. Here is my entry for both challenges.
I've stamped an Inkadinkado bird, using Staz-on ink, timber brown, onto a Glimmer Misted background. Then I've used Tapestry stamps that I've had for some time and not really used much, around the edges to frame the bird. Where there are acorns and berries I've added some Stickles for interest.
The image is layered onto a bronze paper and then two papers from Scribble-Scrabble (Hollie's Collection), from the Stamp Attic, layered behind it. I think the very pretty sheer ribbon is also from the Stamp Attic, it came from my DH at Christmas and is printed with leaves.
I'm really pleased with this card, the shimmery Glimmer Mists don't show up as well in the photo as they do in real life, the colours are lovely.
