This card is for 2 challenges: Moxie Fab Tuesday Trigger and Dawn's Raspberry Suite Color Challenge #21. I knew when I first saw this week's trigger using the bird nest charger at Pottery Barn that I wanted to use PTI's Birds of a Feather. I love birds and was so excited when this set was released. I also love the beautiful font. I didn't plan on using yellow until I saw Dawn's color choices but now feel it adds that perfect warmth and spring feel. I cut circles with my nesties and then added the embossing. Both are Cuttlebug folders. I used Branches on the chocolate and ran it thru twice--in opposite directions. I sponged it with Vintage Cream ink (PTI) and used Camomile (also PTI) on the Bird & Swirls. The little stamp I used in the corners is from Boxes, Bags & Tags (PTI). All cardstock is Papertrey. I didn't have any aqua mist ink so I stamped the eggs with a light blue and shaded with Copics.
The little nest on the side is one I made using reed. Thought it should be in the picture too!
Hope everyone is staying warm. Today is the coldest day of the year so far here in Kansas. Looking forward to warmer days!
