I love embossing and frames and you have used these so beautifully!! Love that chickadee and your coloring as always. The inside is gorgeous! I am so over this heat as well, welcome Fall! Have a great weekend.
Linda, this is beautiful -- I'm lovin' everthing about the front of the card and the inside is just as pretty with the nests and ferns!
Linda, how delightful to see that frame inked over to make it stand out. Great creativity with this card, the frame offsets that sweet chickadee so beautifully. Glad you shared it on Speedy's Blog.
Gorgeous! Love the embossing and the inside. Did you see Olga's new puppy?
What a beautiful framed card this is, Linda. You have used my favorite bird for the center, and the coloring is fabulous. I love the inside too....how gorgeous this is all together!
Linda, love your card! The coloring of the bird is
absolutely gorgeous and, I love the pink flowers -
its addition makes the whole card pop! I want to tell
you that I am quite a fan of your header! I stop &
"study" it everytime I see it. The coloring is exquisite as well as the shading! Is it taken from
a marks finest stamps?!
This is gorgeous Linda. That is a beautiful frame for that pretty bird and your flowers are gorgeous. I really like the way you designed the inside of the card too.

Beautiful card! Love the inside!
The duck ribbon and the sparkly ribbon I used on my card/diaper cake are from Wal-Mart!
Gorgeous frame and flowers! ;)
Linda, wow you did another absolutely gorgeous card!! WOW!!
What a beautiful embossing folder! And you showed me something new. I didn't know Cuttlebug had "Plus" folders, such as this. Good to know, and I'll have to keep my eyes opened for this beauty.
