This is a CASE of a card I made a long time ago. I am making my non artsy sister her own card stash...she is smart, kind, pretty, and wonderful, but the closest she comes to crafts is choosing the postage stamp for the envelope. From my photos she chose a bunch of cards for me to make. I used 4 die cuts from the spellbinders label 1 for masks.by using temporary tape and the largest and the label 2 sizes smaller I was able to sponge mustard ink and then stencil over the 2 areas with fired brick. I covered these areas with masks and sponged the other 2 areas with olive and stenciled with grape....the grape dots turned out a weird color as did most of the inks on this card. Covered the entire image area with the largest mask and sponged the entire card with olive (boy did this turn out an unexpected color) and stenciled the leaves with rusty hinge. I stamped the entire card with a music bkg stamp. Stamped the birds with black stazon and colored with gel pens. I drew the branches with a sharpie. TFL, Francie

Francie, I'm still laughing after reading the first sentence of your write up. Are you sure we don't have the same sister?! Seriously, I absolutely love this card. Wow! I love the colors, the movement, the entire design - wonderful card! You might what to keep this one (she smiles).
