What a wonderful background for you beautifully colored bird! Love how you use bleach to bleach out your background. I also like the added interest with the use of a stencil. Time for me to dig out the salt again thanks to your inspirational card.
Fabulous card. incredible background! Beautiful bleaching and colouring.
This has to be one of my favourite of your recent cards - you know I love blue and bird stamps!! Heading over to Magenta to read more!
Awesome card, Christine! Love the background and the bird and leaves are colored beautifully! Did I say this is AWESOME!
This is gorgeous Christine and I love the sweet bird beautifully embossed and coloured, and the pretty blue tones in the washy background and the salt gives such a lovely textured look, and the added stencilled bubbles work really well. x
Fab salted bg, Christine, and hte image is soooo great embossed and cut out. Lovely!!!! You always have the BEST ideas. Hugz
Gorgeous, love that background. It is beautifully set off by the black and white framing xx
Amazing results with your salt on watercolour, Christine. I need to give this another try. The bird on branch with berries is so pretty. It looks so 3-D ... as if the bird is perched over top of the card. Great work, my friend. xx
I'm a hopeless nut for bird stamps and you sure know how to use them beautifully. The background looks really amazing on this, too. ps: Christine, I was sorry to hear about Dylan, but glad you caught it early enough to ward off the worst. He's just a young boy. Our Wally will be 13 this month. Hugs for you and your precious Goldens!
Fabulous card, Christine! Love the gorgeous background! The salt technique and the stenciling worked wonderfully. The visual texture and the shades of blue are beautiful. The pretty blue bird and the shiny red berries are so pretty too!

Fabulous background, beautiful bird and a striking card Christine x.
Thanks for describing how you made this card, Christine. I never would have thought that you used bleach to strip the color from the image you stamped on the background. I was convinced that the bird had been stamped on a different paper, cut out and glued to this beautiful salty background. Thanks for all the tips

so gorgeous...love your results and the look you achieved.
