Hello! Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments Photo Inspiration Challenge #480. I was inspired by the tree photo mainly. I knew right away I wanted to use my Aspen tree dies and the coordinating stamp set, which includes the cut, fat little bird. I don't know why, but I've always liked fat little birds. This little guy has been laying on my desk for over two years, I'm certain. I've held onto him because I knew there would be a project for him some day! Today was the day! I was experimenting with coloring him using only blending brushes. I feel like he was destined to be perched in these wintery aspens and Pines on this card today. This wintery seasonal scene is also perfect for Just Add Ink's Just Add Something Seasonal Challenge. Here in NE Montana we've been having a lot of winter fog. It coats the trees with frost an makes things so beautiful! That's what this card brings to mind. Everything is white and icy blue. I'm also playing along with The Card Concept color challenge. The bird fits perfectly within the challenge colors. I'm considering Cloud Cover color more of a neutral.
Here's a list of my supplies....

Ink: Cloud Cover, Pecan Pie, Cherry Cobbler, Early Espresso, black, versamark
