I love the colors of pink and orange together so I was excited to do this challenge. For my top piece of cs, I blended inks through a stencil and then die cut a rectangular opening in the middle. Then I die cut the lovely branches from Songbirds and attached them to the stenciled cs so they protruded through the opening. I die cut a burlap sheet to attach to the main card front and then popped up the stenciled cs with dimensional tape. (I also put some tiny pieces under some of the leaves so that there is a raised surface over the burlap sheet. It looks really neat with the dimension. Added a sentiment strip, some floss at the base of one branch and some enamel dots. Linking to CAS295 (pink and orange) and also I used inspiration from our inspiration site (IC463) - here's the image that inspired me: http://www.vietri.com/natural-straw-...ccent-placemat
