Our Creative Corner & Stamping Vacation Challenges


The challenge this week at Our Creative Corner was to take inspiration from a picture of a bird in winter and at Stamping Vacation they wanted a vintage card with a silhouette stamp. When I looked at this DP I thought it looked "vintage" and I liked the layering of the lacey squares nestabilities for a kinda old fashioned look. The stamps are from a Fiskars set- isn't that bird and branch lovely?
