Positive Thoughts for #FMS527

 Hello and thanks for visiting!

Today's card is inspired by Judy's sketch at Freshly Made Sketches - love it!  And, in spring I love watching for various birds of prey soar over us.  We are lucky to see hawks, falcons and others Raptors if we keep a watchful eye.  The Niagara Peninsula Hawkwatch  supports conservation of Ontario Birds of Prey and you can find their website here.

Please click on either my card or the #FMS527 to visit their blog challenge.

Assembly & Trix:

***Trix, create the colour variation on the feather stamp with sponge daubers using Crumb Cake, Soft Suede & Cajun Craze ink.  I was trying to create a Red Tailed Hawk feather, not sure I succeeded, but I love playing with colours to see if I can create a realistic look.

*  Stamp the sentiment with Soft Suede ink and adhere to the 3 3/4 x 5 Basic White cardstock layer with glue.  Then adhere to the 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 Basic White card base.

*  Stamp the Crumb Cake cardstock with Crumb Cake ink using the Stacked Stone, #152556 Background Stamp.  I chose this stamp because the stacked stone reminds me of the horizontal layers of the sedimentary rock of the Niagara Escarpment.  

*  Die cut the rectangles with the Stitched Rectangles, #151820.  Adhere to the card using Foam Adhesive Strips, #141825 to add a bit more height.
