I went with this ornament for my inspiration. I colored the image with Prismacolors and blending with gamsol. I'm using a new stencil for the bg..it's a Greetery one where you have 3 stencils and do different colors with each one...for this effect I used 2 colors, 1 color used with 2 of the stencils. I like how it looks....will need to play with it a bit more. TFL!

Your birds could be related to your inspiration birds! What a great background - I used the die cut that coordinates with it for my card today - great colors!

Beautiful card, but then how can you go wrong with a pair of cardinals. Love the stencil...I thought it was dp. The extra border of green diamonds add a great touch. Wonderful card.
Wonderful card, Polly! I love the cardinals and snowy sparkle you added to the branches! The square dance stenciled BG is cool and I like the added poinsettia!

You have the Perfect images to go with your inspired ornament, Polly. Love the pretty sparkle and snow on the branches! The poinsettia at the bottom is a nice touch, as well as the row of diamonds. I rarely use stencils, and I've never heard of using 3 for the same card. Your bg looks good to me~
