Colourful Ostrich

 Morning(can you believe it's April already???) and I have two DT posts today-the first one is for the "All Creatures Great and Small" challenge at Pearly Sparkles.

I found a smooched background which I cut down and rather went overboard using a slection of stamps,some thread and a recycled Ostrich from a  received card which I thought too good to waste.

  16. Beautiful card. The fun ostrich is so pretty. It´s so nice to look at him and to discover all the different papers and colors. The background matches so very well. And this ribbon is so magnificently placed. I´m just enthused about your card.
    Thank you so much for sharing your card with the Everybody Art Challenge.
