You can hear them from so far away!  They make SO much noise. Then there's a season where there's migration (not of those who live in Austin) of the parrots to Mexico and then you see tree FULL of them, it's just WOW....

My Cup of Tea

Here's a fun combo of bright colors, a great image from Sandra Caldwell and delicious papers from Paper Temptress.  This fun image from Sandra is called 292 My Cup of Tea.  I paired it with some gorgeous papers to make this creation.

The base of the card is a wonderful sparkle cardstock called Mangue Sparkle, it has beautiful mica specks all over it.  I then added a Hambly Studio overlay that I trimmed.  I totally recommend the 6x6 in packs as you then get a taste of all their wonderful papers inside there and they are just the perfect size for a greeting card.  The sheet of Hambly Studio that I used is called Lime Bohemian.  On top of the Lime, I am using a small piece of red sparkle, which is filled with gorgeous mica flecks and goes perfectly with the Mangue Sparkle, it's called Vermillion Sparkle. Finally I am using my image which is printed on Neenah Solar white classic crest paper.

The Lord delight in you!
