Pretty Birdie

The Moxie Fab Tuesday Trigger Target was gorgeous this week.  As soon as I saw it, I knew I wanted to play along.  It inspired me to create this card in greys and yellows.
 

 
 
The stamps are from Artistic Outpost.  I used my pastel pencils for a light wash of color.  And I brushed the cardfront with diamond glitter to give it a sheen that doesn't photograph very well, but trust me, it's there. :)
 
This is the current inspiration trigger.
Gorgeous, isn't it?  I'm also linking my card to the Artistic Outpost Monthly Referral Program.  Each month they randomly give away stamps to one lucky stamper who plays along.  Cool, huh?

EDITED:
After I finished my post, I sat at my desk and played around with the stamps and papers scattered around and I created this card too.  Same bird.  Different look.
