This is the first weekly challenge card I've tried. So much fun! I used the weekly challenge Birch Bark & Birds. I tried to keep the abstract-like theme to it, and also use the three birds. I didn't like my bird stamps for it so I painted these ones and branches and cut them out. I somewhat followed the color scheme of brown and blue, but added a lot of gold and red as well. The inspiration piece was so unique, it was fun trying to capture it in a card!
