I know, I know, for you naturalists out there, gold finches are not yellow in the winter where it snows...they turn a tan-grey for camouflage. I took artistic liberty for color's sake.
On to the challenges. I don't think I have ever knowingly combined so many on one card!
CAS94 - sponging - bg
TLC300 - an anniversary "banquet" to choose 2 or more to use on a card from the list of 300!
TLC28 - masking - finch
TLC29 - salted bg - you can faintly see it
TLC111 - reverse masking - circle

Awesome card, you pulled all those
techniques into one little space,
and it's a cute little finch that resisted change!
Another favorite for my fav's, tfs!

Sallie, that bird is so real looking , so sweet, and just so beautifully done! Gorgeous job of masking and using artistic techniques in a complely CAS style! I have some bird stamps coming from my mother in the U.S. - can't wait!
