Spring Thoughts

I know, it's been eons since I've posted here. I'm sorry for the delay. I've been stamping, but on projects that can't be posted yet.

I made this card for the SCS sketch challenge. All the images are Hero Arts. And can be found at Stamper's Dream.
The bird is from Trees, Birds & Messages, the swirl is from Designer Butterflies, and the sentiment is from Thinking of You Messages.

I added a touch of glitter with my Quickie Glue pen, faux stitching around the nestability circles, and a bit of piercing in the corner.

The flower is from a kit called Petaloo Box blends. I'm in love with these flowers. I found them at my LSS "Memories from the Heart. The flower center is a metal flower from The paper Company.

All the edges are ink distressed with Ranger Vintage Photo Distress Ink.
