Nature Walk Christmas


I made this card to enter the challenge at Less is More where it's a one layer card featuring something with wings .  Well, I did go for the obvious - the little bird from SUs Nature Walk, but I stamped him off the page and added a sprig of holly in his beak.  I stamped in Crumb Cake and River Rock and coloured in the leaves and berries with my markers.  I made a double score line to 'ground' the bird image and the card blank is a lovely textured ivory colour. I have made a few of these cards as I'm rather pleased with the design. As it is also very clean and simple I would like to enter it in the challenge at Addicted to Stamps where it's a CAS week.

  6. This is a beautiful CAS card. Love how you've used only part of the bird image - a really nice touch! Also, the scored lines are such a great detail for not giving the impression of the bird floating..
