This was a fun card to create. The glittery tree with bird images was fussy cut from a Christmas card before I glued it to the card base. I like the results of my new birthday card. What do you think?
Be sure to drop over to Speedy Fox and Friends Challenge this week and join the fun! Grab a Christmas card you received and see what new creation you can make.
You could be the winner of a free stamp set from Marks Finest Papers - a Heinrich Co.
Thanks for stopping by and come back again. Enjoy your day! ~ Gail ~
