Encouragement card for a very dear friend. I love this bird from ODBD, colored with Copics and sponged on the edges. Can't seem to get away from this design either (thanks to Twinshappy!) This wee bird was colored by the lovely Michele, (Mitchygitchygoomy) when she was here. I sat and watched, and now I struggle to try to get the same effect! (thanks Sister!)
The tag is made with a portion of a set from Clear Dollar Stamps (Beautiful Scriptures #5546) and the inside uses the complete image that reads "As you have received Christ Jesus, so walk in Him" Col. 2:6
Thanks for looking!

Oh Pat, Sharon will be delighted with your creation! That bird is so real looking, you just know how to give all God's creatures such LIFE! The roses and that clinging vine, it just looks like a breath of Spring, a perfect little bird's nest.

Your work is always superb and this just proves it again. P.S. I'm glad you are green with envy that I met some SCS's over here; but, I'm green with envy too b/c you've met a lot your way. Guess we iz just da women with da man! Two separate da mans that is! Hugs and Love!

I am just loving these gorgeous cards you make with this die, and this one is no exception! The way you add your flourishes and blooms, and now - little tags too!! Just one question - how do you open to the 'inside'? - this card looks like it is only a front with no where to 'open' - I would be afraid to tear it!!! just so loving!

Oh my goodness Pat another one of your cards that have been most beautifully made, what I really like about it is the additional richness of all the foliage, I love how you have cut out the little bird and his branch, have you used a little bead for his eye? anyhow I just love how it gives it real presence.
