Yellow bird - Kris-Krista Sketch Challenge

This card is my interpretation of Kris-Krista Sketch Challenge.
Stamp:  Fast & Fabulous
Paper: Basic card is Concord Crush, followed by a layer of Very Vanilla, and Greenhouse Gala Designer paper. 
The Design:The middle design of Very Vanilla was initially stamped using the Fast & Fabulous stamp set and Perfect Plum ink.  A circle was then cut out of the center of this design, the cut out portion turned over and embossed with the Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder.  This raised image, as well as the edges of the circle were inked lightly with Perfect Plum ink.
A flower image was stamped with Versa Mark on Vellum paper and embossed with black embossing powder. The flowers were then coloured (on the wrong side) using Perfect Plum, and Daffodil Delight SU markers, after which they were cut out and applied to the design using small glue dots. A small rhinestone was placed in the center of each flower.  A bird and branch was punched out of vellum, using the Big Bird and Flower punch, coloured with Daffodil Delight and Early Expresso and mounted on a branch coloured with Wild Wasabi marker  I put an extra layer of vellum on the bird to overcome the transparency of the vellum.
Three rhinestones were placed in the upper left hand corner as per the sketch design. I highlighted them with the Perfect Plum marker.
