I had stamped the birch trees a while back and cut them into the panels, but somehow managed to scratch one of the embossed pieces. I set them aside thinking I could fix it but at the time wasn’t in the right frame of mind to try. They sat on my desk until the other day when I had the idea of how to cover up the error. Using a small piece of scrap pp I die cut the birds using a very old die but one I can’t remember who by. I added them over the scratch on the left and used the last one for the panel on the right. Then I die cut the sentiment using some more scrap pp. I glued a single piece of pp behind the panels, added them on top and finished with the sentiment. To my mind it is a good save.
Lovely card! Glad you were able to fix the item that grabbed your attention.

That stamp set is from GKD but was exclusive to SSS and not sold anywhere else. I like the trees and have used them in various ways since I purchased the set.

Now birds is a great way to cover a scratch. I probably would have tried a gold sparkle pen, or some gold paint/watercolor. I like your way better. The bird on the right panel pulls it all together. Very pretty card Johanna!

The scratch would have shown way more if I had tried to paint it so covering it up was my only option.

Notice those red foiled stars on 2 of my cards that I just posted? Missed foil does not show there, now. 😉
