The idea for this challenge was to choose your favorite Crafty Secrets stamps - but honestly I have so many favorites that I obviously could not put them all on one stamp. So for this card - this will have to do. I do love it this stamp - in the photo the birds come out a little more orangey-red than they actually are - in real life they co-ordinate with the paper a little better. Anyway - thanks for looking.
