Heartfelt Creations - Spring Season Birdhouse

Happy Wednesday everyone!

Today I have a card using Heartfelt Creations' Spring Season Set.





I used the beautiful papers from the Daphne Paper Collection for this.  The images were all stamped on off-white paper from the collection, and the birdhouse and bird were colored with pencils and mineral spirits.  The mat behind the image is made from 2 of the papers from the collection, I LOVE the flower print on the one on the left!  I used this paper as an inspiration for coloring the birdhouse image.

Be sure to visit the Heartfelt Creations' Blog to see all the beautiful creations by the design team this week!

Blessings!

Kathy
