Birthday Birds

 There were three crazy birds loitering on my desk, left over from a project made some time ago and as they were all ready to go I decided to gather a few more bits and pieces to make them into a card.  I started by cutting a scalloped circle aperture into a square of card, then backed it with a matching piece of embossed texture for a bit of added interest.  Now for something for the birds to perch on and I remembered I had a set of dies which cuts narrow strips in various styles, so one of these strips was glued across the width of the card as a handy place for the birds to rest.  Finally I added a fairly large die cut sentiment to tone with the colour on one of the birds.


Scalloped Circle Die - a very old set from Tattered Lace
Embossing Detail - E/F from Amazon
Crazy Birds - Unbranded stamps and dies
Birthday Sentiment and Patterned Strip - Unbranded dies
