Covered Bird

Photo Details
Poster: tracymum

 This is my card for AUG08VSNMINIB. The challenge was to use vellum with a design over the top of your card. Like a book cover. This sure didn't seem hard when I read it but it turned out to be quite a challenge. I covered over the little solitude birdie with a square of vellum stamped with the solitude flower. Under his little cover the birdie is embossed with black EP. The strip at the back of the card is also vellum stamped with the solitude flower in groovy guava. The sentiment scallop is up on dimensionals. I just had to use the 2008 In colours. They are new here in Australia and I am loving them!!

You did a fantastic job. Looks like you are looking through flowers to a bird on a branch further back. Thanks for playing from down under.

Good on ya! (is that right--hopefully not insulting!) but this card is really great! I like the layout especially and how you chose to use the vellum.
