Congrats to Nancy Littrell for being chosen as the Featured Stamper this week!!! Nancy and I met just over a year ago while on the CAS Design Team and have been friends ever since. I have been inspired by Nancy's wonderful gallery of cards for a long time. I told her that I especially admired her bird cards because I had the same punch, but it never seems to work with any of my cards. So today I CASE'd one of her bird cards and I love how it turned out. Thank you Nancy ... you are a wonderful friend and a true inspiration!!
This card is very similar to Nancy's, only changing up the technique, colors, and orientation of the label.
I'm also entering this into the Less Is More challenge (LIM#111 - Frame it!).
For more details, and a close-up view, check out my blog.

This is just the sweetest little bird punch. Love your beautiful shading. There are many inspiring cards in Nancy's gallery, but I do love the birds. You've made a gorgeous CAS card!
