| It had to be a simple card. The paper is from Raspberry Road's Summer pack. Embellies: twine and 3 bling - how's that for restraint?! |
 |
| The sentiment is from Chocolate Baroque's Words of Comfort & Cheer, stamped with Memento Rhubarb Stalk. The stylised bird is also from the same set, stamped with Memento Danube Blue and touches of colour with Promarkers. I fussy cut the bird and layered the sentiment on red CS cut with Spellbinders Label 23 die. |
 |
| I stamped the bird on the inside, this time with Memento Rhubarb Stalk...and I took the liberty of cropping his tail feathers! |
