Fusion Card Challenge - Feathered Friends

Hi friends! I hope you're having a great day! A new challenge begins today at Fusion Card Challenge! It's a great place to play and you'll love this challenge because there are three ways to play.. you can play along with the sketch, be inspired by the photo, or FUSE them together and play with BOTH!

You know me.. always attracted to what I see.. and I spy some GORGEOUS tropical birds. I confess I love watching the birds and they just don't get prettier than these! Maybe the photo isn't inspiring you? That's ok.. you can still play along with the sketch. And this time there is a THIRD way to play.. use the color chart and make it a color challenge! 

My card starts with a rainbow Distress Oxide blended background for my colorful bird. This is the Papertrey Ink Feathered Friends 10 bird. I switched up the colors to make it a looker and am so happy with how it turned out.

The oval in the background is also from Papertrey Ink. Its the Shape Shifters Oval 1 and is so pretty and intricate. The white breaks up the background so the bird can take center stage.

The pretty die cut leaves are a Simon Says Stamp exclusive designed by Memory Box called Etched Laurel Leaves. The sentiment is from Waffle Flowers Essential Celebrations set. I love that the dies fussy cut out the words so they're not square. The finishing touch are some metallic gold pearls from Pretty Pink Posh.

Now it's your turn! I can't wait to see how you interpret the inspiration photo OR the sketch. Maybe you need a little more inspiration? Check out designs from the rest of the team. Just click on their names below to jump to their blogs.
