For this week's One-Layer Wednesday, the challenge is to incorporate a bare tree. I loooooved the look of the white outline on kraft, then added my sentiment. This is where I hit a creativity block. I still needed one more thing, and since this is a one-layer card, my options were limited. I told my husband that I wanted a bird, and he said "why don't you just cut it out of the card?" BRILLIANT! I used my trusty xacto knife to carve out the bird silhouette, and it was the perfect addition. I think the vacant image fits so well with the sentiment too, because the bird is not really there, hence the "missing." (did I go too far with that concept? haha)
Love this card! I think the concept is perfect. The "missing" bird, missing you, perfect. Great CAS card. :)
ReplyDeleteHow cool...and what a great hubby you have! Love it when my hubby offers input (well, most of the time! lOL!)Beautifully done!
ReplyDeleteI adore white on craft too!
ReplyDeleteAnd how clever is the bird cut out!
Great job on the challenge and thanks for playing along with OLW36!
Just brilliant - love the cut out bird. Fab tree stamp too.
ReplyDeleteTerrific card! The 'missing' bird is so perfect!
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever husband you have! Perfect finish to this card, although I can't imagine how you wielded that xacto knife so perfectly.
ReplyDeleteYou're right! That bird cut-out IS brilliant! Hang on to that guy, he's a keeper! ;o)
