thank you so very much - Catch the bug photo challenge

Saturday May 28, 2016
 
Welcome to Saturday challenge at Catch the bug
 

Use this photo as the inspiration for your project
 

This is my card using the photo inspiration.. using the Bugaboo image spring bird  I really did not know what to do so I printed off the bird image.. I then dug out my Tech. Tuesday stamps set and stamped the flowers /leaves below the bird.. I colored them really loosely and I did not like it so I put it aside for a day.. Still didn't like it but thought ok lets color the bird and see what happens.. Well I did and ended up liking it. It tied it together once the bird was colored. I lightly colored the background so it wasn't the harsh white and that helped tone it down. 
I hope you take time to make your card and enter it at the Catch the bug Saturday challenge.
