We're at the first Friday in October and that means a new challenge over at Emerald City Crafts. This month I used a beautiful bird image from the "Les Beaux Oiseaux" ephemera collection by Linda Simpson Designs. I love all the images in this particular collection (see at the bottom) but this one seemed so perfect for an autumn card.
I also decided that this image called for a shabby chic card with lots of layers and plenty of laces, ribbons, and paper flowers for embellishment. There are several layers to the image piece, then a twill ribbon, plus strips of gray lace all laid on top of a delightful vintage paper.
The multi-loop bow was made on my bow maker and I added a wooden bead to it, matching the ones in the centers of the paper flowers. I really love the final look of this card!
Challenges:
