Etsy Inspired + Moxie Fab

An Etsy Inspired challenge card today... combined with the current Moxie Fab Grey is the New Black challenge. Our inspiration etsy store this week is Modern Bird. A site full of gorgeous handmade jewelry pieces. When I first laid eyes on my inspiration piece a card idea immediately formed in my mind. But, the question was could I made it work? Well... I think I did!! I absolutely LOVE how the card turned out because it turned out exactly as I imagined it would!! Don't you love it when you card turns out exactly how you planned it??

I did have a bit of a problem photographing the card, though... but I do think this picture does the card justice.

Here is a close up shot of the flower:

Thanks for taking a peek...

Supplies: Cardstock: PTI white; Ink: Ancient Page Grey; Stamps: Vintage Vogue; BasicGrey Pearl
