Shopping our Stash is asking to see our birds - and boy, do I have a lot of bird stamps!! For this card, I used one of my older ones that is still a favourite. I'm also adding it to the Inkspirational challenge "Seasonal".
A very CAS card and quick to make - stamped, watercoloured the berries dark red, trimmed with a stitched rectangle, bordered with dark red, popped up on fun foam, and Glossy Accents added to the berries.
And for My Time to Craft "Monochrome":
I masked off a rectangle on my focal panel and sponged from three
corners first with the lighter ink, then the darker. I stamped the
leaves and text with second generation stamping, and then stamped the
sentiment with full strength ink. It's popped up on fun foam on an embossed background.

The bird is so pretty Susan and I love the deep red berries and complementary background card, and the gloss on the berries too, and the blue monochrome sympathy card is perfect with the partially inked background, and the beautiful leaves and a lovely sentiment to finish. x
