Sponged, Punched Birds

A few weeks ago, I posted this white on white card.

I wondered how it would look with the birds colored.

What do you think?


These little birds flew off to wish a very special couple a Happy Anniversary.



I sponged the color on these birds.



I've got 2 kinds of dry embossing on this card.

I used some snippets for the hearts and the birds.

Glad you could stop by.

Enjoy!

  1. I think I like this one even more than the first beauty. You still have all the lovely white on white but with the pretty soft colouring on the birds.

  6. I think I kind of like the birds with a little color on them better. I'm not knocking the white on white version though. They both have their place in this world. Very nicely done.
