Today, we are featuring the "Spring Has Sprung" stamp set:

For my card, I decided to use the sweet little chick from this stamp set.  I had a new roll of pink and black herringbone ribbon on my desk so I decided to use it as the basis for this card design.  I used black and pink card stock and embossed the white panel with a Cuttlebug herringbone embossing folder.  I colored the chick with Copics, and stamped the sentiment and a few sprigs of grass.

    I wouldn't have thought of pink and black for spring but you really made it work! Love the herringbone of your embossed background to go with the ribbon. The two things really work together to make the focus image stand out. Love it!
