I made this card for todayÂ’s challenge, it is scenic, cut out, popped and sponged. The snowy egrets are one of my favorite birds and I love this image of the bamboo frame. I have used it for a moon background and now a sponged sun background. The ribbon slide says Joyful, it was hard to photograph.
Thanks for looking.
I forgot to mention that in honor of The Buckle Man, I used the xacto knife on the Bamboo Frame and Crane.

I have never seen these stamps.. I just love the way they look. Such a great scene.. Makes me want to be at the beach. Do you know where these birds live.. We live on a lake and I think I have one out on my dock each morning.. Just curious... He is grey and white.. Must not be the same bird.. Love this.. Super stamps.

Quite stunning! what a beautiful sun I love how neatly you have cut that bird out, did you have to use an exacto knife between his legs and his beak and the trees on the bottom of the frame cause you did an amazing job.

Wow, look what my twin did with this challenge. Beautifully done. I like that frame and your crane, I couldn't tell if you used scissors or a manly exacto to cut it out, but now I see you the exacto and seemed to have mastered it. A great scenic card
