Hello friends! I've been busy working outside in the gardens, enjoying all things spring, but I thought I'd pop in here and share a card I made using the beautiful colors from Beautiful Blossoms Challenge.
The jewel tones are brilliant! Don't you think?
The nest is from The Greetery and the bird is from Spellbinders. The scale of the bird worked well with the nest, so there you go! The flowers are die cut and then I stenciled the centers in through the holes before removing the die. These super old flowers are from PTI.
I'll also be entering this card into the following challenges:
Word Art Wednesday ~ Anything Goes
The Sisterhood of Crafters ~ Flowers
Simon Says Wednesday Challenge ~ Things With Wings
Here is the printable I used. It was a freebie I found on the internet. You can click on the image to open it, right click and save it to your computer so you can use it too!

Happy spring and happy gardening!
Thanks for stopping by!

This reminds me of the current situation on our patio... we have robin nesting in a bush right by my swing! This is so bright and happy Birgit, just like our mama bird!
This is such a sweet scene and perfect for Spring/Summer! I can hear that little birdie chirping to her eggs. We're so happy you've joined us at The Beautiful Blossoms Challenge. Thanks for sharing your creative card with us.
