A fun birthday card for a special person!!! I started with a piece of blue scrap book paper and added a layer of stamped leaves in a light green colour of ink. I watercoloured over them with blue and green to make a muted background. While it was drying I tore and embossed a piece of vellum using a leafy branch embossing folder (CB). I laid it over the background and added a strip of tan cardstock. I used a decorative stitch on my sewing machine and stitched all of the pieces together using blue thread. I mounted this large element to a tan card. The bird (Supercoloring) was sized and laser printed and then fussy cut. I watercoloured it to coordinate with my card!!! It was mounted to my card using 3D foam tape. I printed several birds so will be using them on future cards. Therese
