MMTPT233 Lonely Swan
Added to Favorite
xxxx

Photo Details
Poster: stamp300

 This is my 2nd time in the Teapot Tuesday challenge, we were to help the swan find it's way back to her garden. I sure hope I did this right, my 8 yr daughter made 2 swans using my Cricut & made it a wee to big but I made it work by adding the pond & the trees. I slipped the back piece of the swan through the blue so it fits better. I embossed the swan with the CB branch ef & made the tulips using the SU Bird Builder.

This card will soon find it's way to Pearland, Texas. The aunt of Cindy (Mothermark). Martha's DH recently passed away from a heart attack, while they were visiting NYC.

I hope this works because I took the inspiration right off the teapot.

My thoughts & prayers goes out to Mothermark & their families.

I need lessons on how you achieved such a fantastic sky! I also like the embossing on the swan; very pretty

What a wonderful card and the swan is just lovely especially with the embossing. Those beautiful tulips are a nice touch too!

I need to remember that tulip-bird punch trick, Connie! What a great idea. I love your sponging and those pretty flowers, and your sky is so amazing! Beautiful card~

Love all your punched or Cricut images here. The addition of the lake was the perfect touch. Wow scene and card. TFS :0)

I think having the tulips on the swan looks just wonderful, as does embossing it - and how great that your daughter helped out too!
