Spring Song on Birch Bark

This has been one of my favorite bird sets for some time. This little bird was stamped in Chocolate Chip ink and colored with Stampin' Pastels.
Some bits and pieces of birch bark and dried twigs add a little touch of nature to the card.
The Confetti Cream card stock was torn and sponged heavily to add dimension. The background layer of Sage Shadow card stock was stamped with the retired Weathered background stamp. It was also sponged randomly with Chocolate Chip ink. The corner ticket punch was used on the corners before layering on a piece of Chocolate Chip card stock.
The card base is also Confetti Cream.
The Spring Song stamp set is on page 102 of the 2009-2010 Idea Book and Catalog is available for $15.95, or as a free set for the Sale-a-bration promotion with a $50. purchase through March 31. If you like cards with birds you'll want to add this stamp set to your collection!
Hope you have a wonderful First full Day of Spring today!
