I am hosting the Clean and Simple Challenge at Splitcoaststampers today and I made this card along with a couple more for the challenge. I think I got a bit carried away, but it was fun. And I made them to participate in the CAS Mix Up Card Challenge as well. The idea for this card came from Loll Thompson and her card Fun With Markers. Like Loll, I too had a oops! My sentiment did not work out the first time round, hence the banner. Thank goodness for second tries. I heat embossed the image on both the card base and the top layer, then added the layer to the card with foam strips. I die cut the bird in gold glitter paper, styled and attached on a foam dot. A few crystals finished my card.
