I am running a little late today, but was still able to make a card following this week’s sketch. Here is the layout:
And my card:
This card uses the stamp set "Aviary" that I had recently gotten. It was "whistling'" at me to use it :-) I've also use the set "Perfect Punches" and inked up only the inside lines with a marker and punched out with the 1 1/4" circle punch. The greeting came from "Watercolor Trio" set. Then I added a little flower punch in Pumpkin Pie with a Brad in Rich Razzleberry. The color combo came from the Color Coach... Tempting Turquoise, Rich Razzleberry and Pumpkin Pie.
I wanted to show you a close Up of the tail:
Yes, that's a REAL feather that I've collected last week while looking after some birds. NOTE: No Birds were harmed in the making of this card – PROMISE! I didn't pull it out of the bird, it was on the ground :-)
Don’t forget to check out MaryJo's Blog to see what the other participants came up with…
just a little reminder

If I could only figure out what to do with the dog hair around the house that I could collect to make a nice embellishment like this... hmmm :)
