How cute is this stamp?! It comes with several wonderful sentiments, including the "Bless your nest" that I chose. I colored this little sweetheart with Copics after sponging her sky with Tumbled Glass distress ink and a cloud template. Star Dust sparklifies several areas of my image, including the tiny little egglets. The whimsical tree and nest were a little intimidating at first, but they were fun to color. :o)
My image is framed with Marianne Design Anja's Vintage Ornaments 2, which I've inked with Faded Jeans distress ink. My pink floral panel is trimmed with a Memory Box Fleur de Lis Border, also inked to coordinate.
The pretty papers are from the Front Porch collection by Pebbles. I cut apart a Memory Box Butterfly Vine Border to scatter sunshiny butterflies throughout my card, meant to deliver healing light and strength to the entire family. My pearl accents, including the border beneath my sentiment, are from Recollections. I hope with all of my heart that this brings a smile to this precious family.
