I am using a background that I had made earlier with my stamping group, made by swiping an ink pad onto glossy paper.
I added a bit of sparkle pen to the bird, to give it a bit of color and sparkle. I cut the wreath from white card stock and colored with markers. When done I added some Liquid pearls for the look of berries.
Hot off the press - Wreath die, colored w/markers
Recollections - wood bird
Background - swiping Distress Oxides onto glossy paper
Distress Oxides - iced spruce, walnut stain and wild honey

If Summer is flying by up there that must means that the last days of Winter down here will soon be but a memory. =) This is a beautiful card, Connie.
