I made this for the Tuesday color challenge cc572. I don't have SU papers so I used what I had that looked similar. I started by finding papers and cardstock in the challenge colors. The brick pattern in the green paper led me to the brick embossing folder. I embossed a piece of white cardstock and then gently brushed Merlot ink over the raised parts. It was too pink, so I then brushed color box chestnut over it again. I order to add in the light blue I cut some of the bricks out of my wall and filled the holes with both blues from the challenge. Then I cut the birds and attached them with foam dots to give them a bit of dimension. Finally I stamped the sentiment with the color of Merlot and embossed it with clear embossing powder to make it pop a bit.
