Faux Silk

Published by Stephanie at 5:47 pm under Cards, Gardening, Stampin'

Sorry I’ve been gone so long. I’ve been super busy but I’m back! Here is a card that we did at last month’s club using the faux silk technique.

My DH and I were standing on our deck planning where we were going to plant new trees and noticed that a Mourning Dove had made a nest in one of our hayrack planters. She was sitting there keeping her two babies warm. Aren’t they adorable?!

    Your camera takes great pictures - I love the closeups of the birds - what a wonderful thing to be able to see. Your card is wonderful too!I love the faux silk technique, it is so easy and looks like you fussed over it!
