CD Sunday - Fine Plumage



Good Sunday morning. Time for the next challenge at CD Sunday. This time it's 'Fine Plumage'  - chosen by Jocelyn. I've gone down the usual route with a 'bird' card but the timing was good as I needed a card for a male friend this week. My image and backing paper are from Card Creations Flowers in Bloom CD, the leaved were cut with a large leaf punch which also embosses the veins. The sentiment is a really old stamp that is on a wooden block that has several greetings on different sides, and then mounted onto a nestie oval.
There weren't many entries for our Ooh La La sponsored challenge last week but it meant that those who entered had better odds of winning. I hope this week's challenge appeals to you and you have time to join in. If you do - please remember to use something from a CD and give that CD a mention.
Thank you for visiting today.

I love the owl on this card Beryl, and you gorgeous leaf embellishments. I bought this CD when it came out but don't remember seeing the owl on there, but then I still find things on older CD's that I had not seen before.

Great card Beryl. I love the Autumnal colours. Those leaves looked real to me.....honestly when I first saw it on CD Sunday I thought they were real and you'd used varnish to preserve them. Not seen this punch before.
