This is a stamp from Stampin Up.  I just so happen to belong to SU and have for quite some time.  I always wanted to get out there and do demo's but my work life never allowed it.  I love to stitch birds and nature.....I do some counted cross stitch when I have some free time as well.....just pulled out a picture that I started a year ago or more today.  I also pulled out the sewing machine and dusted that off.....  I received a hand made post card yesterday from Norma S. and she does wonderful work.  So she inspired me.  I will be posting cards that I will be making for a Mingle with Bear Lovers soon.  First card goes out on Monday.  Each week is a different technique.
My mind is all over the place.  I made six of these cards the other day.  I should be thinking more about Fall and Halloween and here I am thinking about C'mas!  The background paper is a few years old but I like it.  It worked well with the other colors.
I belong to Bear Lovers and I made this card to share with a few of my friends in the group.  I am so torn between my Cricut and my rubber stamps and have had this stamp for a few years now and never have used it.  I have the stamping bug now so I guess I will stamp a few cards for a bit.  I used chalks and Copics on this picture and the leaves and acorns are a Fiskar's punch.
