This week's Free For All Challenge (F4A240 9/26/14) was "Au Naturale". The challenge was to use some sort of natural fiber, wood, burlap - anything natural.
This little wood veneer bird and the wood music notes are new to my collection and after I bought them I wondered how I would ever incorporate them into a card. BINGO! This challenge came along at the same time I needed a thank you for a dear friend who had brought me treats from Maui. I wanted a card with a happy theme that would sing my thanks to her. The music notes were the perfect way to convey my sentiments!
This card made me smile the whole time I was making it. The hardest part for me was cutting the swallow-tail ends on the washi tape banners....let's just say, I did it more than once!!!! ha...
I appreciate you stopping by to peek at my bird singing thanks!

Susy, this is just as sweet as can be - love the cloud textured bg with all that white space and the perfect placement of your wood veneer accents! Fab composition all around!

I LOVE this card - love the pretty banners and the embossed cloud background as well as the clouds in the foreground. And then there's that cute bird....
