Today's CAS challenge was a beautiful photo for inspiration. I used the branches from this tree image as the vines, stamped in Sahara Sand. The faded turquoise of the wooden shutters in the photo is represented in the bird. I used a black marker to edge the white panel instead of adding another layer. Then I sat on my hands. :-)
Beautiful inspiration for us, Denise. Thanks for viewing and commenting.

Kathy, I am so glad you did this technique again. I love seeing it!!! The little blue bird was genius. This is definitely something I must try. It's like laying in a meadow and looking up through the trees. Just love it.

Love the way you used the Branch Out tree - I'd never have thought of doing that. You captured the colours of the leaves in the Pinterest photo perfectly!
