Do you have favorites - maybe really old sets - that come out to play every Christmas? I do! and I think you might just recognize it! But first: our IB154 inspiration:
Isn't it pretty?? I couldn't help but pull out my variety pack of cardstocks from The Stamp Market - they were perfect, and they have the most lovely, almost felt-like, 'texture.'
Here's my card... and a closeup:
I'm so grateful to my friend Therese for introducing me to this Altenew Apothecary Labels set ... even trimmed, it makes a statement.
Thanks for dropping by today! I hope you find a little something here that might inspire you to play along with IB154 ... maybe our Sketch will get the juices flowing? For sure my teamies will! OR how about the chance to win a prize?? Here's a darling set of sentiments YOU might just win, just for playing along:

ReplyDeleteOh Michele, your bird, nest, and apothecary label are so fabulously CAS and so beautiful!
Nailed the inspiration...and, yes, I do recognize the die set. I even own it. But I couldn't ever do what you've done with it so spectacularly.
ReplyDeleteSo striking, Michele. I looked at that set just now - wow, I may need it. Nothing in my stash from that company either.
ReplyDeleteLOVE your pretty little bird, and the greenery (and whitery) you've added makes a lovely "nest"! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOh, it does look like felt! Speaking of pretty, I like the frosty nest your pretty little bird is perched in. This is simply charming!
ReplyDeleteOh yes, the Apothecary Label... at true fave from 2020 (the year that shall not be mentioned) You have rocked this Michele!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, Michele, simply, texturally, and wonderfully beautiful. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteSuch wonderful texture and color on this card, Michele! It screams "touch me"! Awesome bird!
ReplyDeleteLove that you pulled the colors. So pretty.
ReplyDeleteI spy that texture but it takes second, only to those bold beautiful colors!
ReplyDeleteYou always inspire me with your creativity, Michele! This is such a charming card and I love how you played with the colors! I think I 'need' some of this cardstock :)
ReplyDeleteThis is GORGEOUS!! I love the arrangement of die cuts and the PINK background!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovey take on the IB photo, Michele! Yes, I can feel the felt texture in the close-up picture. Wonderful cardstock!
