Happy Wednesday!
Can you believe it's Christmas Eve already? I'm so not ready for it!
Today I have a cute floral birdhouse card for you using Heartfelt Creations' Arianna Bird Haven Set for the image and the Lullaby Darlings Set for the sentiment.
I colored the image with pencils and mineral spirits and cut it with a Labels 4 die. The mat behind it is the Elegant labels 4 die cut in white. The background mat is embossed with Pirouette Embossing Folder and glued to a white card base. I added Avocado Liquid Pearls to the flower centers and a silk multi-loop bow with an adhesive pearl in the center.
Be sure to visit the HC Blog to see the beautiful creations by the designers this week! Lots of inspiration there!
I'm submitting this to the Word Art Wednesday Challenge #163 - Anything Goes.
Thanks for stopping by!
Blessings!

Kathy i love your colouring, always so soft and this is beautifully done.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card, and your coloring is just perfect.
ReplyDeleteSo gorgeous! The way you use color always thrills me. I study your cards at great length because they are sheer perfection. That embossed panel adds such wonderful depth and texture, and then the perfectly colored image just pops off the white die cuts. You inspire me!
ReplyDeleteReally stunning card Kathy! Merry Christmas:)
