I love browns but often forget to use them. I couldn't resist this darling brown bird that reminds me of those at my bird feeder. I enjoy the subtle beauty. The patterned paper is the new Basic Grey Curio line. I've stamped on a layer of vellum for a subtle look. The Hero Arts sentiment is stamped in Coffee Archival ink by Ranger and then masked and over stamped with a musical background in Sepia Archival ink.
Supply List: kraft cardstock by Bazzill, Curio 6x6 paper pad & Curio Chipboard by Basic Grey, So Artsy stamp set and Cling Music Background by Hero Arts, twine, Brushed Corduroy Distress ink by Ranger, Coffee and Sepia Archival Inks by Ranger, Leaf pins by Maya Road, vellum, sewing machine
