I love the rustic, folk feel to Kelly's card. However, I'm fresh out of folk bird stamps, so I replaced it with Thoughts of Father. I used Weathered and Sanded on the rear panels. Used a combo of Prismacolors/gamsol and watercolor paints for the image. I put the sentiment over a velvet ribbon.
It is a very grey day here today, so it was difficult to get a shot to show the true colors on the image, but hopefully you'll get the idea!
Thanks for looking and have a great day!
