I was inspired by the soft spring colours and the birds used on the image, so decided it would also be perfect for the CAS "Think Spring" challenge. Nothing makes me think of spring more than the increasing sound of birds on spring mornings - so I used an old set of inchie bird stamps that I've had for years.
I stamped each in a different shade of Distress ink, mounted them on an embossing folder that has small birds on it (though I seem to have covered up most of the birds), and added a sentiment on a ribbon tag.
It's also for Loll Thompson's Happy Little Stampers CAS challenge "embossing". I think the embossing folder background gives the card so much more interest than just a plain background. Here's the challenge link:

Susan, your little inchies with bird motifs in the colors that you chose....do indeed remind one of spring. Wonderful layout and bg embossing to tie it all together.
