Joyful Bird

Photo Details

Poster: pbvkt

This was made for today's Free 4 All challenge to use a text stamp repeatedly for a background. I sponged on two colors of distress inks, then used the blue to stamp my sentiment stamp. I thought that little bird was probably pretty joyful to be out of his birdcage! ;)

Thanks for the inspiration!

Fabulous card! Love the sponged background and that you did opposite color sponging on the base of the card. Really, really lovely!
