Woodware: A New Nest

Everyone deserves the perfect "nest", the place where all your dreams come true, life lessons are learned, children are raised, grandchildren are spoiled, and two people can grow old together. For those moving into their first, and possibly last, new home, the emotions run rampant. This is the perfect occasion to share your creativity with them. Show them you understand by sending them a beautiful hand-made wish for a happy new home.

I chose to post this card, as it's one of my favorites, and it speaks to that cozy, comfy nest of contentment. The image is the Stampendous Cling Nestled Bird, stamped in black ink on kraft cardstock, and colored with Tombow markers. Bright white highlights were added using a Sakura White Gel Pen, and texture was added using a glue pen to adhere bits of Stampendous Color Fragments in Chiffon, Ochre, Hunter, and Sage Green.

I'd love to hear what you think of as the perfect home in your comments below!
