Well, I didn't really manage to follow my stamping resolution this week... better luck next week! For today I have my card for the Our Creative Corner challenge. We're being hosted this month by the fabulous Wendy Janson, and this week she has a fun chickadee inspiration challenge for us. We hope you'll play along with us!
For my card I picked the colors Riding Hood Red, So Saffron, Very Vanilla and Basic Black. I took my layout from the Friday Mashup sketch challenge and went with a vintage style with the Love Letter designer paper and Bliss stamp set, which will be available during Sale-a-Bration. I sponged the edges with black ink and created my bird with the extra-large bird punch, and since the sketch challenge called for using bling, I pulled out black rhinestones (retired from the holiday mini) and gave my bird a sparkly eye and added a flourish under my flowers.
Be sure you go check out all the samples from the OCC team - and then show us your own creation! Have a wonderful weekend!

I really like the feel of this card. I've never thought of putting So Saffron with black and red. Great look! Thanks for participating in Friday Mashup!.
Love it!!! These colors are great and the style with the bird goes well together! Thanks for playing along with the Mashup!
Lori, this is just beautiful! I love the colors you chose and the vintage look you added. I thought more of the DT would use this bird so I didn't! So far, you're the only one! LOVE it!
Ooohh, your card is drop-dead gorgeous, Lori! I love all the red, and the combination with the other colors is wonderful! Fabulous job on this week's challenge. It's great to have you back with us again :)
Hope you have a wonderful weekend!
