Color Challenge with Hostess Jeanne: Delightful Flamingos in the Pacific with dessert of using an embossing folder
Teapotters Challenge with Hostess Polly: You're the Boss so do some form of embossing. We're sending cards to our very own Vicki aka Basement Stamper as she recovers from back surgery.
This image of birds in the birdbath worked nicely for the colors. I just need to use a neutral gray on the birdbath and a little neutral green for the grass & flower stem. The birds are yellow with pink tummies with blue for the water. I applied Wink of Stella on the water drops. The card base is shimmery so as the light catches it glistens like mist from the fountain. The embossing folder looked like the streams of water in the image. Fun card to make. TFL

This is so charming and so delightful Diane and is sure to bring a big smile to Vicki's face. I love the bold blue embossed panel and how that draws your eye right to these delightful birds. I also love the stripes at the top of your card. This is really classy and elegant! ~Karen.

This card is so happy and cheerful to me as the sentiment is perfect for it! I have a bird bath right by my patio and it was something that took my mind off my pain if just for a bit while watching the birds in it. So this card really resonated with me! I love it! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for sending to me!! HUGS
