Papertrey Ink September Blog Hop

Hi everyone! Thanks for popping in to my blog...we are having a great "rainy day~stamping day" here and I am playing with this month's Papertrey Ink Blog Hop.
The month of September's inspiration photo is:

This really does capture your attention with the bold graphics, rich hues and black backdrop doesn't it? I searched my birdie stamps and this is what I came up with. I used a gold mirror card stock for the leaves to give it some pop and the colors from the floral on the birds.

This stamp , "Song Birds,"doesn't get nearly enough attention! I have a dear friend with a birthday soon and I will be ready! My card is a five inch square to give enough room for both birds and branches. I had stamped more flowers but decided to leave the front alone and use them for the inside.
I look forward to hopping along and seeing everyone's card creations! Have a blessed day!
