This is for FS194 and LynniePoo is our featured artist today. What a wonderful gallery full of CAS projects. Congratulations, Lynette! I had a great time browsing your gallery this morning. Here is a link to Lynette's card that inpsired me. Chickadee Speedy Recovery by LynniePoo at Splitcoaststampers
I kept Lynette's layout and bird theme but changed the card to a holiday greeting. I loved the pure white background for Lynette's bird image and wanted to try and recreate that same look with my bird image from Feathered Hope. I used an artist pen to add a few extra evergreen sprigs to the bottom of the image to fill it in a little more. I used artichoke green in place of olive and red corners instead of black. I replaced Lynette's sentiment layer with a bright red bow. I added Stickles sparkle to the berries but unfortunately they don't show in the photo. That little touch a sparkle makes the whole image pop off the white.
Stamps: Retirued SU Feathered Hope
Paper: PTI White, Red, Artichoke
Ink: Lemonade, Peeled Paint, Forest Moss, Brushed Corduroy, Stormy Sky,

Stunning! You coloring is so great, and your artistry in adding the extra needles is awesome! I'm a bit overwhelmed being "cased" by such talented stampers!
