No, it's not Friday! The TGIF challenge comes from Emily Keaton, the Stampin' B's Design Team
'hostess with the mostest' this week. Here is what the TGIF stands for: T=Texture, G=Green, I=Iridescent, and F=your choice of something that starts with F, be sure to tell us what it is. My 'F' is for my FRAME. The button is iridescent. I embossed the blue cardstock for texture and the green was already embossed. And, the frame is embossed. Green paper and leaves cover the 'G'. So, there you have it.
I love my bird stamp. It is a $1 stamp from Jo Ann Stores and I stamped, colored, and popped it up. The Spellbinders Decorative Oval Window Die is a Spellbinders made exclusively for Heartfelt Creations.
Thanks to Debzi333 for the pretty flower brad.
We would love for you to join us this week.

You did a spectacular job Benzi. I absolutely LOVE your bird as I am a bird lover too. That nestie is awesome and love your ribbon/brad treatment. I need to upload my ridiculous card! TFS!

Oh, this is so pretty, Benzi!! I love that bird stamp, too. You can find some great ones in the bargain bins sometimes, can't you?? You've covered all of your TGIF bases perfectly. What a fresh and cheery card. I really love it!

Benzi, this card is so pretty. Love that embossed panel and your $1 bird (looks like it cost way more). Pretty colors too. The button is my fav - how cool is that!
Hey, I saw where you said you were going shopping at the LSS on JoJot's card - what is the LSS?

The first thought that came into my mind with this gorgeous card is "the blue bird of happiness". Just because that is how it made me feel when I looked at it! "Happy"! I really love that die cut girlfriend. Like I need more dies and punches right!!! lol That irridescent heart is beautiful. What a glamours and charming card.
