Okay this is kinda an hodgepodge inspired by than a true CASE Diana, I was so torn between this fabulous gift and this awesome design, so this is merged piece with things from the top of the table. The lace & fibers were braided to hold the snippets into place during rolling. The sky behind the branch die was done using this weeks Mixed challenge to create the texture with an plastic bag, distress ink, & acrylic paint. this card is too lumpy for an envelope so has been boxed. There are some cropped and angled shots on the blog seen here if you are curious. I think I am going to make variations on this for my own people I need to send to this year. Thanks for these challenges ladies! & tfl.

Stacy, this is incredibly creative - I love the way you used the gems, ribbon and lace to make a birds nest - such a beautiful colour combo too. Your blue bg is fabulous!

You've got one of my very favourite colour combinations here. I love the multi textured nest and the very blue 'eggs' gleaming in it. What a perfect theme for mother's day. Lovely card!
