Saturday post #2

My second post today is another quick card. This one for the Moxie Fab Tuesday Trigger. I just loved the trigger photo this week - the bright white contrasting with that wood window frame.

I love the contrast of white with pretty much anything, but particularly against that warm wood finish. So clean and crisp with those pops of orange. Love it! So here's what I was inspired to make:

materials: cardstock, stamp: Stampin Up; patterned paper, brads: Basic Grey; bird: Studio Calico; pin: K & Co; tape: American Crafts; twine: Martha Stewart
Thanks for stopping by!
