Make My Monday challenge 13

Over on the Make My Monday blog we are on the last week of the 'things with wings' challenge and this time they've given us a photograph to use as inspiration in any way we like. I chose a piece of green background paper from my stash of beautiful papers which came as part of my membership of the Graphicus Guild and I must admit I do tend to hoard them. I stamped a birdcage and embossed  in white onto the background (Papermania stamp set) and the bird from the same set was stamped in brown, cut out and coloured with pencils.The flowers were made using some white glassine paper and then sprayed with Glimmer Mist; the leaf was cut using a Marianne die and the greetings printed and cut out using a punch and shapes cut with Cuttlebug dies.  Take a look at their blog using the link above and see if you think this is a reasonable interpreation of the photograph.
