STAMPlorations spring fling

Hello crafters, welcome to a special STAMPlorations event!

I created a card with one of the ATC released in March, aptly called Color me Spring:

I used a piece of vellum and die-cut it around the edges with the Art Border #1.

I added stencilling with the Leaf Print 3 stencil using coloured pencils (vellum hates any kind of wet medium so I didn't take the risk of using inks, even the quick drying dye inks).

I placed the Color Me Spring ATC  matted on black card on the vellum and added 2 birds cut with the For the Birds Dies . The bottom bird is actually the same as the top left just reversed and I cut the branch out.

Finally I stitched thread in some of the holes from the die-cut which helps with the vellum sticking to the base card whilst adding a little decorative detail.
