I was inspired by the soft spring colours and the birds used on the image, so decided it would also be perfect for the CAS "Think Spring" challenge. Nothing makes me think of spring more than the increasing sound of birds on spring mornings - so I used an old set of inchie bird stamps that I've had for years.
I stamped each in a different shade of Distress ink, mounted them on an embossing folder that has small birds on it (though I seem to have covered up most of the birds), and added a sentiment on a ribbon tag.
It's also for Loll Thompson's Happy Little Stampers CAS challenge "embossing". I think the embossing folder background gives the card so much more interest than just a plain background. Here's the challenge link:

What a lovely palette of uplifting spring colours! I love those bird images. I can't wait for the morning bird song to start up again. Love your symmetrical design softened by that classic EF. Your colours almost meet the monochromatic WT challenge this week. Wonderful card!
