CHF .... For the birds!

Hi friends! 

It's time again for another challenge over at

 Cornish Heritage Farms Challenge blog and this week,

our challenge is brought to us by DT member, Steph!

 

Her challenge:  Creating a background with stamps.

My head was swimming with ideas as soon as I saw this challenge

            and knew I wanted to work with this stamp ~ the absolutely
                          gorgeous Wood Grain backgrounder stamp.

*Swoon!*

I stamped it out in a variety of colors and

ended up going with a rich, darker brown.

I wanted to keep my card simple, so I added a simple grosgrain ribbon,

twine and Cardinal bird image, also from Cornish Heritage Farms ..

and a little button to finish it off.
I added a tiny bit of glitter dust to the leaves - hard to catch on film :)
Simple but quiet, serene, peaceful ♥

 

Before I go, you may remember on this post a small bird that dh
brought home after a storm - found on the sidewalk with no mommy,
no nest, no shelter :*(  My daughter nursed it through the night
around the clock and the next day we took it took a bird sanctuary.
It turns out it was around 10 days old or so and a morning dove ~
they graciously took it in and called us a week or so later to tell
us it had done quite well and released back into the wild!
Such a happy ending!

                   To play create a card using CHF images.

You can use either CHF digi or rubber stamps to create a card or project with a Cornish Heritage Farms.

Be sure to link up your cards here on the CHF blog and see what the

DT has created with backgrounds this week :)

As Always,
Big Hugs, Bigger Blessings!
