I stamped the Hardwood stamp onto Crumb Cake card stock and attached strips of it to a card base to form a background for my sponged panel.
Strawberry Slush and Crumb Cake inks were sponged all over my square panel and the bird image and some extra grasses stamped over the top in Early Espresso. I stamped the bird again on scrap card stock so I could colour him in and pop him up over the original. Since I was already quite inky, I smeared the Strawberry Slush ink pad all over a piece of scrap card stock and punched flowers out of it with my favourite little flower from the Itty Bitty punch set.
It was this fabulous inspiration photo over at Addicted to Stamps and More that sent me scuttling for my sponges and inks:
