"Bird Has a Song" Card
Another Artistic Outpost card using the Ranger Alcohol Inks. This phrase is sooooooooooo beautiful -you've gotta visit their blog/store and check out ALL their images. For this card, I created the background on glossy white cs using Espresso, Raisin, Mushroom & Oregano inks, then stamped the image with Timber Brown Staz-On. The plum cs panel beneath was Cuttlebugged with the Script Texture embossing folder then roughened up around the edges with my Making Memories paper distresser tool. On both the light green panel and the right corners of the card base I used my fave EK Paper Shaper...it's called "Laurel". The organdy ribbon I've had forever and it's kind of a mauve/olive multi-toned color (couldn't have gotten it more perfect if I was on one of my JoAnn hunts!). Finally, I used an Ornare paper-piercing template along the upper edge of the card then finished it all off with a couple Prima flowers. Maybe this posting will summon Spring for everybody...

Gorgeous!
Got your comment on my blog, I looked at both lights side by side, and looked at something under them in the light, in the store and could not tell a difference.

This is so beautiful with its soft aging, not overdone. So it's still feminine.
