I am in the middle of re-organizing my stampin' room, and quite frankly, I couldn't find the ribbon I wanted to use for this card. I pouted over it for 4 minutes, while Speedy the Cat paced back and forth on my stampin' table stopped every so often to stare at me. I know he was trying to figure out what had gotten into me, so I just said, "Oh, well...back to my ol' stand-by brown!" Speedy the Cat then jumped off the table and back to the floor under my desk! LOL!
The tree image was stamped in Memento Rich Cocoa onto ivory. I stamped the bird on white, colored it with Copic Markers and cut it out. I drew in the legs with a Copic Marker and adhered the bird to the tree. The white leaves, (that were AIR HOLES in the shoes!) were made by cutting apart a Martha Stewart punch out leaf.
Finished size: 5" square.
Total time to create this card, pouting included, took 19 minutes. (I debated over adding a Prima and decided to leave it off....)
