I combined 3 challenges today. Yesterday the FS was Jenn, fattire7. We had a prolonged (16 hr) power failure & I was not able to do a card. I'm not so sure this is so CAS either but it fits the neutral catagory! And I embossed on vellum for today's TLC - have never done that one!
Happy Anniversary to the TLC - 9 years! Thanks ladies for all you do to get me to try new techniques!
While looking through Jenn's gorgeous gallery I came across this cute card. I used the CAS neutral colors & opted out of dessert. I used the Bird Call ef, pierced the top & bottom & hand stitched. My bird was a RAK from Elizabeth, i love rubber, in my teaparty tickle card, along with the stamp. The bird is Crafty Secrets Birds & Blossoms. The stamp was also from Elizabeth & I used the versmark pen to ink & then embossed with black ep on vellum. My changes were no brads, not as much stitching, stamps & colors. CONGRATULATIONS Jenn on being FS this week. I hope you like my version of your cute card.
Thanks for stopping by.

Beautiful. We have had robins since January and you'd think they'd bring spring along. Wrong!! Maybe yours will

This card is jaw-dropper! Love everything about this card - the bird image, the background embossing and most especially the unexpected choice of greys as the main color theme. It's fresh and fun and definitely CAS. Great card, TFS!
