Today I joined the Just Add Ink Colour Challenge.
These were the colours I could use:
I've always liked Garden Green,
usually on Christmas cards.
Using it as a feature colour with neutrals
was a little more tricky!
It's windy here today,
and a bird's nest fell in our garden,
inspiring me to use one of my
favourite sets, Nature Walk,
and feature the bird.
I embossed the background using Finial Press,
first rubbing Crumb Cake ink on the folder.
(I will miss this folder so much when it retires in two weeks!)
 |
| Actually this is a soft little nest that fell another day, that I kept. Today's one is quite large and has some orange rope woven in! |
I also used stamps from Elements of Style and Teeny Tiny Sentiments.
Inside is a greeting, this card will be for Dad.
Thanks for visiting!

This is beautiful Fiona! So many fabulous inky effects on this - my fav's are the inked embossing and green touches on the bird. Thanks for the lovely comment and for joning us at Just Add Ink this week.
I really like Garden Green too - and I like how you have added the layers and sentiment. Chantell JAI
Fiona, your card is gorgeous! I love the sentiment tag, the inked and embossed background, the bird perched on top of a Framelits die cut, and the use of the eggs from the stamp set. Great job with the challenge colours! Thanks for joining us at Just Add Ink this week :)
