Today's IC took me here. My inspiration is the 3rd one down.
My oldest son's gf gave me a Christmas present that was inside a beautiful box. The outside of the box has pink dogwood flowers on branches with a blue & green bird colored just like this one. There are also butterflies and a gold birdcage (which is stamped on the inside). This thank you card will go to her. So glad I could get inspiration from the box and IC site today.
Colored with blender pens and ink pads. For the flowers, I stamped in Pink then colored the edges with mambo. Added a black pearl to each butterfly and sponged the branch with crumb cake. The bird was fussy cut. Thanks for stopping by! ~Roberta

Roberta - this is as fresh as springtime. The dogwoods are beautiful and I love the itty bitty butterflies flitting here an there. Beautiful job both coloring and fussy cutting that tiny bird.

How very beautiful!! This card is so lovely, and perfect as a thank you to her. (Thanks for the card you sent my son Paul. He loved it!)
