Another of my favorite challenges... this year, I'm going to try very hard to play here more often... there- I've challenged myself!!
So to start the New Year right, I made a little card using another bird - let's face it: I have snow, and birds to look at these days! Even the birds are hiding from the snow:
I received a few really wonderful little card-making goodies tucked in a Christmas card this year. I promise to use each and every one... for today, a little Purple Onion from that cute little Judy Marino:
Black, silver embossed, very fancy tail-feathers + Red
Is it CAS enough? Hmmmm.
Thanks, Judy - I'll get to those cups!!!
Awww so cute, love the pink heart :)
ReplyDeleteCute sketchy bird, Michele ... very nattily attired in his silver plumage and red heart wing! Awesome photo! Anita :)
ReplyDeleteThe cardinal is jealous of the cute bird on the card. He's inside where it's warm. :-) Did you add the heart for wings or is that part of the stamp? Either way I love the coloring and polka dots.
ReplyDeleteOh my, Michele..this is just so immensely adorable I'm at a loss for words! Pure delight...now 'fly' this little birdie immediately over to Inkspirational Challenges,where the word prompt is 'note' (I'm on the DT, so I'll be watching for you *grin*).

Oh, so cute! Love the pop of red there and those fun polka dots! Such a happy card!
ReplyDeleteMichele this is so cute! love the black frame and the bird accented with the red heart wing. You are so lucky to have such beauty to look at in your backyard!
ReplyDeleteOh SOOOOO sweet!
ReplyDeleteSo adorable! Love the polka dots and the heart wing! I just recently found your blog and have become a follower. Spent some time looking back over your posts and even CASE'd a card. Your CAS style is amazing!
ReplyDeleteSo very sweet! You have inspired me to use my bird stamp! ;)
ReplyDeleteOh my, I am loving this card Michele! The pop of read with the black/white/silver is so beautiful! Loving this color combo and loving that cute bird! Hugs, Brenda
ReplyDeleteEEEK! Michele, I LOVE this adorable card! So glad you were able to use this image...I knew you would work MAGIC with it...and here it is! LOVE, LOVE!!! I can't wait to see what you do with the cups, my friend!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a super card and a fab image. The bird in the photo looks so striking against the snow. No snow here at the moment just another Atlantic 'weather bomb' and hurricane force winds. :)
ReplyDeleteCute, cute sketchy bird with such an adorable little heart wing! I love that the sentiment has that sketchy style too :). Great job on the challenge!
ReplyDeleteOh this is so beautiful and with the gorgeous snow photo too.
ReplyDeleteSuper cute. You may want to link up at Inkspirational too as their theme is 'note'
Thanks for taking part

Your photo is just beautiful, I love that sweet little red bird tucked away from the snow. Just adorable, like your card...love those long legs and the sweet note, so so cute.
ReplyDeleteWhat a vibrant, fabulous bird in the snow...it looks like it lost its way on the way back to the tropics! What type of bird is it?? How wonderful getting crafting goodies in the mail, always exciting. I love the sketchiness of this card and the black/white with the pop of red. Its perfect for the challenge I think!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous Michelle! My fave colours all rolled into one! In love with that love note bird!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry this is such a tardy visit Michelle.
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely stunning. I love the pic of the cardinal too, I loved seeing them in our yard when we lived in Va many years ago!
Thanks so much
