A Happy Little Budgie

Photo Details

Poster: ravengirl

I made this card for Ann's VSN challenge called Polly Wanna Cracker?. Ann challenged crafters to make a square card with a bird and bright colors. Check, check, check.

I also made this for Kelly's Stamp to Spend challenge to be inspired by Hummingbirds. My bird is bright, like some hummingbirds, and tiny. I included some tiny little silver pearls for my bling for Kelly's challenge.

Thanks for looking!

So cute with that touch of yellow on your bird. That cord "birdcage chain" is brilliant!

I love the simplicity, yet somehow fanciness of this card. Great job!
