It's been quite awhile since I spent any amount of time in my craft room and although I've been visiting blogs, I haven't been posting.
Susan's OLW challenge this week was to make a ONE layer, simple card with Black + White and a *spot* of colour, and after several tries, this is the one I was the most satisfied with ... you should have seen the ones I tossed :o)
I decided to heat emboss the swirling flourish as well as the little red bird sitting on top ...
I retrieved a couple from the garbage to punch INCHIES out of to use for a separate card for another time so at least I didn't waste much!

The little bird is just darling.
I love the embossed swirls and the red bird is the perfect little spot of color!
I think this is the first time I've completed a OLW challenge without messing up several times! This look awesome!
Such a clever way to ace the Challenge! And I'm so glad I'm not the only one who has to make a bunch to get to one worthy of posting.
Very striking. I love the shine from the heat embossing.
Oh, very pretty! The bird is a great touch! I bet this would make a nice Christmas card if you stamped the flourish in green. Great card!
Thanks for the sweet comments everyone and to Lil-Rosi for the idea that it might make a great Christmas card if the flourish were stamped in green :o)
Have a great weekend!
Dallas, this is delightful! That red bird is so festive!
Dallas, the birdie is so sweet there..
