Here is my card: Mother Bird with Nest.  I trimmed the corners to create a large tag shape from a a 4x8" card base.  I embossed the card with a beautiful flourish pattern and then applied Lindy's Starburst Ink Spray.  These three colors are part of the Prairie Wildflower Shimmer Set.

• Bachelor Button Blue - a rich and vibrant blue with soft blue shimmer.
• Yellow Rose of Texas  - a bright primary yellow with a rich gold shimmer.
• Bells of Ireland Green - a bright, vibrant green with soft green shimmer.

A Closer Look:

After I colored the bird, I used a paper punch to cut it into a circle.  Next, I added Peeled Paint Distress Ink lightly to the edge.  Then, I applied VersaMark Ink to the edge of the circle and heat embossed it with Lindy's Magic Moon Pearls Two-Toned Embossing Powder.  I also added embossing powder to the eggs to give them a luminous sheen.  Finally, I added yellow flowers that I stamped, heat embossed, & colored and then I embellished the centers with Dew Drops jewels from The Robin's Nest and gold micro beads.
