Okay, who is responsible for all the bling on this card?
I originally started with just a little on the bottom, then took another look at my sketch and added the two on the sides...but I did something a little different with the ribbon since all these panels were attached like cement!! So I tried something new with the ribbon treatment,and had fun participating in Mothermark's Teapot Tuesday to come along on the Birdbrain Train. I think I belong there after this card.
Edited to Add:
The bird was made by applying a darker marker along the outside edge of the stamp ( it didn't work to try to line it later,) then added 3 colors (Almost amethyst, apricot appeal, and green galore then tapped the entire image with lovely lavendar marker)...then misted lightly using the Tim Holtz mini-misters...then stamped!

Too much bling - no way, I think it looks just perfect. They balance each other so well with the lovely bigger flower at the bottom and the two little ones. Know what you mean about layers stuck down like cement - that happens to me too.
