Here is my entry for Sharon's (notimetostamp) Stamp Simply challenge where we were to incorporate natural elements in the making of our card. Challenge found here: Blogs at Splitcoaststampers
I used a piece of birch bark to stamp my cardinal on. I kept this card simple. Thanks Sharon and Cathy.

Absolutely gorgeous! Love the crumpled look, the edges....If you used fire to get the look of the edges I am so impressed as I would burn my polka dots down, if you didn't...I am still impressed! Gorgeous!

Wow!! is this actually stamped on real bark??? How did you get it off the tree?? I love the way it turned out. I'm going to have to let my tree know it has some growing to do
