I managed to combine 4 of this weeks challenges, Inspiration challenge - Felted garden, sketch challenge, Ways to use it (water colour paper), Limited Supply - acrylic stamps. Main image stamped on water colour paper twice and water coloured. I cut out the bird and the bottom leaves from one and popped it up. Matted with old olive and nesty choc chip rectangle. Main card is 5 x 5 very vanilla, next is old olive, then chocolate chip. dp is from Scenic Route (I thought it looked like the scarf and the same colours). The small squares are the reverse side of the leaf dp, matted with chocolate chip. I stitched around all edges. Punched out the CC circles with 1/4" punch and attached with brads. I cut a 1/2" strip of green wool felt I had laying around and stitched on the lines and attached. I am really pleased with how this turned out.
here is the scarf that inspired me Forums at Splitcoaststampers

Awesome combination of challenges. I LOVE orioles. In 18 years, I've seen one once here on our farm, but the old apple tree he landed in is gone. Great felt ribbon. Wonderful color. You've captured so much in this design.
