When I saw this stamp in the Cardmaking and Papercraft issue I loved it, probably because it was a different type of bird stamp, love my birds :) The set was called Garden party, it came with embossing folders too but I didn't use them in today's card instead I used my lattice die to frame it.
I tried to color the cup with some very light gray's to make the cup look a bit porcelain, don't know if I achieved that or not, you can hardly tell it has been colored at all, so I will need practice with that :)

Another crisp morning with frost on the ground, we are finally seeing the sun this morning it has been so doom and gloomy for the past 3 days, but they are saying more rain Sunday evening through Tuesday, maybe I can talk my hubby into putting up the Christmas lights outside, if I know him though he is going to want to go for a walk instead.
Hope you have a most wonderful weekend. Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by and leave a comment letting me know you did :)

What???? OMGosh, I love birds and this is so beautiful! It came with an embossing folder, too? Sheesh! Sometimes it's difficult getting light colors to show in photos. It looks splendid to me!
A really pretty card, I love the lattice rectangle.
Really pretty Connie, the lattice die cut, colors and image all work so well together.
