This also fits the Central Theme of the Dirty Dozen for April, "Let the Sun Shine In." Whenever I go running in the spring and hear a meadowlark singing its heart out, it makes me so happy! Even the meadowlark's chest is sunny, and I used sunny yellow paper to match.
Here's how I matched the Word Challenge for April ("W-A-R-M"):
W = Warbling, Weathered stump (ha!)
A = Almost Amethyst paper and ink, American Crafts DP
R = Ribbon
M = Meadowlark, Machine stitching
