Soaring Prayers Card

Hi everyone. I've got another card today. Unfortunately it was made for less then happy cicumstances :( It is very pretty though, and if the sentiment were changed it could definitely be turned into a happy card, so I thought I'd share it with you all.

Recipe:

• 6 1/2 x 9 inch cardstock base
• bird from Cindy Loo (p.64) cut at 2 1/2 inches with layers (I used the Cuttlebug's tiny dots folder to emboss the body)
• 3 1/4 x 51/4 for background layer with sentiment (I typed and printed the sentiment up with my computer)
• 4 x 6 patterned paper for background
• 4 1/4 x 6 1/4 solid accent color for frame
• 6 1/2 inches of ribbon of choice
• stickles for wings and tail feathers
• gems for the corners and to bling up the ribbon
• pop dots for the bird
