The current ODBD challenge is to use punches or dies.
I used Spellbinders Labels 8 for both my card base and image panel, a Sizzix flourish and the smallest Dahlia.
Cut the base from black card using the largest die, and stamped the Birds in Vines from Flourishes with cream ink.
Stamped the sparrow image on watercolour paper with Versafine black and coloured with H2Os. You'd think with the amount of time I spend watching sparrows in our back yard I could do a better job colouring it...Added Stickles to the thistle heads, dots round the edge and light sponging. Popped it up on foam. Added the flourish and flower with a gem, and a little feather from the yard. Not a sparrow feather - I tried a couple, but they were too small and wispy.
I think this will go to an SCS friend who just told me this morning that one of her best friends isn't likely to live more than a day or two.

Beautiful! Looks like a framed photo! I love the beautiful 'frame' you created and the lovely sparrow image as well as the use of the cool feather and flourish!
