CCEE Stampers-Wings



Kathy Bradley is hostess for the CCEE Stampers  the month of April. She has some fun and wonderful challenges ahead. For this week, she has asked that we make a card with the theme, 'things with wings'-(real or imaginary).

Of course, being a bird lover, that is the direction I took. I recently bought a new bird cage die that also had birds included. My complete recipe of all items used is below.

We hope you'll play along with us this week and show us your winged creations.

There is so much eye candy going on with this card, I don't know where to look first! The bird and birdcage look so pretty and they're perfect for spring, but those teeny little flowers just caught my eye in a big way! Welcome back home, I hope all is well with you and yours, and that you had a nice Easter!
