Fall Wren

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

I'm sliding in to some challenges before they close, so I'll be posting a lot

for a few days.

I've used my NBUS Memory Box Wren die that I've been wanting to get to.

I die cut him from mixed media paper and colored with Distress Markers and my

waterbrush.  I also die cut the Winterberry Sprig from mixed media paper and the 

Magnolia Leaf die from cold press watercolor paper.

I decided to place him on some stitched hexagon die cuts from my stash.

To add a bit of interest in the background, I used another leaf die to

emboss the background.  I also pressed the wet berries down on the background to 

add more interest.

Then, because I couldn't seem to stop, I pulled out this vintage Memory Box stencil

and brushed a little Antique Linen DOX on the card base.

Challengs:

Memory Box Outside the Box #98 - It's Fall Y'all

NBUS #53 - Never Before Used Schtuff (Wren Die)
