Make My Monday challenge 10

The theme this month on Make My Monday blog is 'things with wings' and this time it is birds or bugs so I decided to go with the bird idea.  The birdcage, bird and sentiment are stamps from a set by Papermania, background was printed from Artylicious Fantasy Floral (now Chocolate Baroque) and overstamped with a CB stamp from Butterfly Flourish Swirls, the border strip was cut using a Crealies border die.  I've just added a few Prima flowers with centres punched from the background paper and some gems to match the bird which was coloured with Coloursoft pencils.

    Love your background overstamping & the way the soft golden colours of the bird really bring the whole composition to life teamed with the magical combination of those golden gems.
