Song bird.


Knowing when to stop adding to a card is a big issue with me. So I stopped here with this one.
The background was stamped with swirls and the main image is an Inkylicious stamp.
The shading is distress inks, shabby shutters and peeled paint.


A filigree metal embellishment with a ribbon and ribbon flower came from my stash.
I am entering this card  into

The Stampman Challenge- which is a Bingo card/recipe theme
 I followed  the bottom line, swirls,metal and ribbon.
Stampin for the weekend Challenge 6 is Anything Goes

Thank you for stopping by to take a look, I realy appreciate your comments.
