SSC256 Wildly Grateful

Happy Tuesday, peeps!  Just a quick little card using some new In Colors, available TODAY! Woohoo!  I chose Polished Pink and Soft Succulent, along with a sketch from Sunday Stamps:

And here we go:


The flowers and sentiment are from Lovely You, stamped and fussy cut atop a Stitched Rectangle.  The horizontal panel was stamped with some greenery from the same set, then wrapped with the new luscious Open Weave ribbon...love this!  The circle was made with the opposite pattern from the DSP, matted with a Soft Succulent scallop:


I normally don't gravitate towards bright pinks, but paired with the muted green, I think this turned out well!  Thanks for visiting today!

I hope you can indulge me with another bird picture, but I just happened to catch a new (to me) bird yesterday!  Waaaay out at the edge of our yard, past our bluebird houses, I spied a patch of blue in the grass.  I thought for sure it was just another bluebird, I had just been reading up on grosbeaks over the last couple days and I knew a blue grosbeak had a cinnamon-colored wing, so I was VERY excited as I looked at it through my binoculars!  Like the rose-breasted, I believe they are migrating through:


Enjoy your day and be blessed!

Such a bright and uplifting card, LeAnne! Another lucky spotting of a bird! I've never seen a blue grosbeak! How lucky for you! He's a beauty!

Awesome bird pic! I love the colors of your card. I just ordered that ribbon today and for the first time ever and probably last time too, I clicked on the Next Day Air shipping! Ha!! It's a Mother's Day present to me!!!

Very pretty card, LeAnne! Love those 2 In Colors together! Wow, what a find in your backyard! I think we seen one like this last Sunday in our yard! Shawn was asking me about it and i'm not at all bird knowledgable! LOL I just know the basics!

I like the way you layered you lovely card! I don't think I've ever seen a grosbeak, but I would love to see that blue one!

Love those colors together and the subtle tone on tone patterns on the papers. Such a pretty card LeAnne!

How wonderful you captured a pic of this grosbeak, they beautiful birds. I've seen yellow but never blue ones, so thanks for sharing the photos!

I love this, LeAnne! The subtle background is an ingenious way to follow the sketch, and I love the flower and work cut-outs for detail. Thanks for joining Sunday Stamps this week.
