Birthday Birds

Good morning friends~ There's a new challenge starting up over at the Dies R Us Challenge blog and if you recall, the theme is "Anything Goes" all year long!  
This makes it so easy for us, as a design team, and for you, as a participant! 

At one of the recent Special Order Events, I purchased this darling stamp set from Craft Consortium, Cottage Garden series called Birds and the Bees. 
 Oh my, it is filled with the cutest images!!  

I stamped all the images onto white cardstock and colored them with Copics.  For this card, I cut the image using Elizabeth Craft Designs Stitched Rectangles and backed it with coordinating ECD Postage Rectangles.  

For the background, I cut design paper using ECD Stitched Rectangles and added a Horizon Fishtail Banner from Taylored Expressions.  I then added the layered image over the top.  To finish it off, I added an Elizabeth Craft Designs Banner cut from coordinating printed paper.

I hope you'll visit the DRU Challenge blog to see more inspiration from our amazing design team and join in on the fun.  While you're there, be sure to sign up for their newsletter so you can be one of the first to be notified of their special order events.  

Thanks for stopping by!
