What a fabulous challenge, Val!!! Thanks much!!! Doing a 15 minute card each morning is SUCH a good idea!!!
My card involves NO STAMPING and NO INK!!! Can you imagine!!! That pretty bird image is from the Wacky and Wonderful Vintage Images Booklet in the Heartwarming Vintage Series put out by Crafty Secrets, linked here: Crafty Secrets They have the neatest stuff!!!
Another good thing, I only used scraps from already cut sheets of paper on this card -- from the new Palette O' Prints by SU -- great little papers!!!
There are no words on this card intentionally. There is room to put them when I decide when/where I'll use this card. It's nice to have generic cards on hand when you need one in a hurry!
I have to edit: Please scroll down and read the comment from Mothermark near the bottom of the first page --that is her response to my comment in the forums that it's too bad Val can't convince me to also exercise for 15 minutes each morning!!! LOL!!!

Oh, Sharon this is adorable...I've always loved images of birds in a row! And, thank you for the the ah-hah moment here--I hadn't thought of mixing the palette o papers w/ each other, duh! They look awesome together!

Sharon,
Lovely card and I really like your idea of using other pictures! I save all kinds of things like this that catch my eye, but it just accumulates and takes up space. Now I have a way to utilize it. Thank you for the inspiration!
Oh and Cindy's exercise ideas made me spew my tea. LOL LOL I definitely have the *walk around your stamp store as long as possible* down to an art.
