Free as a Bird

Good evening and welcome to the Inkspired Blog Hop. Maybe you have come from Maree. I can't wait to see what she has created for tonight.

Here is our sketch for tonight:

And here is my card:

There is a bit of a story behind this card. I was sick and had to have a week off work. For those who don't know I am a primary school teacher. The teacher who is my neighbour is TERRIFIED of birds, and there was a bird in my classroom while I was away. So my friend had to remove the bird from the classroom. She told me about it after and said that she deserved an award for bravery, so I made her a card. We had a good laugh about it when I gave it to her.

Inks: Tuxedo Black Memento
Cardstock: Pool Party, Whisper White
Designer Series Paper: Bird Ballad
Stamp: Free as a Bird
Die: Layering Circles

Until next time
