I like to keep practicing my watercolour wash backgrounds (still not really happy with them but I'll keep trying).
I stamped and watercoloured the chickadee image, then masked over it for the moon. I did the watercolour wash background, trying to get it like the inspiration. I added some salt to the right hand side but I think my paint was too dry as I didn't get much effect from it.
When the background was dry, I stamped the sentiment and splattered a bit of orange paint like the inspiration image.
I debated between a white cardbase and a red one and went with the red for more contrast. The watercoloured panel is popped up on fun foam. As a final touch, I added a bit of white gel pen to the berries and then coated them with glossy accents.

This is one of my very, very favourite cards in this weeks gallery, so it is very fitting that this is my 30,000th post and a fellow Aussie's fav of the week. Your gallery is gorgeous Susan.
