I used ink, Blendabilities, stamping, Gesso, EB Folder stamping, Die, ribbon, fussy cutting for my mixed media. I think this is going to be a favorite of mine :-) So many gorgeous cards from the DT and in the gallery for this fun new Challenge :-)
My 3rd Challenge is this week's WT487 Tantalizing Texture Challenge. I am Loving all the texture on my card. It is a card you want to touch! I love the rough texture from the Gesso. Gives the card an old board look for sure.
Enjoy and have a wonderful week.

Amazing card, Nancy! The coloring of the bird is wonderful and I love the look you achieved with the tag! The rough chevron ribbon and twine are perfect! Levi will love it!

Wow Nancy, your bird is GORGEOUS! Seriously gorgeous. Wow. I so want those pens but I am going to have to wait to get them due to the cost (I am going to ask for my Birthday or Christmas - LOL). A beautiful, beautiful card my friend! Love it! Hugz! (Into my faves too)

Gorgeous card, Nancy. All the textures and embellishments say "rough hewn", while the bird and the colors used soften it all. What a wonderful balance!
