Fly Little Bird Fly on Your Sweet Journey

For  today's 100 Proof Press DT  piece, I went back to a favorite theme of mine, birds. I have a sun room with bird prints, bird nests and even a big bird cage. I tried to make a simple card today and not glitz it up to much. I think it needs more glitter, how about you? LOL.

The Bird stamp (6271) from 100 Proof Press was the inspiration and starting point. I think 100 Proof Press has some of the best nature themed rubber stamps around! Well, I stamped on an Artchix Studio egg sheet and edged with sepia archival ink. This was layered on some vintage music paper from my stash. A journal vellum dictionary piece and a little red tag from Artchix were added. Some brown German scrap trim, rhinestones and glitter add sparkle to finish up this card . Now our little birdie could begin it's sweet journey.

Hope you are having a sweet journey this week.
take care, gerri
