I have been in love with the nest since my first day of discovering Stampin' Up! It was almost the first set I bought. It still brings joy to my heart to get it out and use it--especially when these darling feathers are in my stash! I also love to do collage--and a nature collage is even better!
I'm so glad that Stampin' Up! brought back the metallic cording. This one is copper and goes way back. It is almost always a perfect finish for a card.
Last summer I went to a Background Techniques Class. This background was one that I made in that class and they were not Stampin' Up colors. The background was made using the Ink Spritzer Background. You can find a tutorial on Splitcoast for it here: Ink Spritzer Background Tutorials at Splitcoaststampers

What a sweet card! This is one of my "never give up SU sets". Beautiful work!

Great ink spritzed bg and the love sentiment stamped on. Your little dimensional next with reall feathers added is perfect. Love your loved colored bird and metallic cording added to finish off perfectly!
