For the Hoop It Up challenge today, we are to use circles on our card. I went brain dead when I read that, I think I did not have enough sleep!! I decided to try and continue to use items I have not used in a long time, which is where the beaded circle die came into the picture. I embossed the top layer with the feather ef, die cut the circle and attached. Added the feathers, which I embossed with Swiss Dots ef and the bird on foam dots and the twine, buttons etc. I edged the feathers and the bird with the gathered twigs ink, and edged the bird with white cardstock. I also inked portions of the embossing folder. Thanks for looking ...

Into my favourites, Kia. I love this - the kraft and white is fab, you know I love birds, and your little buttons and squiggles are perfect. Even with all the embellishments, it still looks beautifully clean and crisp.

Kia, the elements you used on this just captivated me! What a fabulous design in my favorite neutral colors! If the challenge stumped you, it sure does not show by this wonderfully designed card!
