This week's colours - Marina Mist, Midnight Muse & Baja Breeze with dessert adding at least 1 gem - I have added 5 pearls.
My bg is Midnight Muse Patterns dp backed onto Midnight Muse c/s. Embossed the white c/s using Birds & Swirls EF. My centre panel I used the Acrylic Block Technique - inked up all 3 colours, misted with water, stamped onto c/s. When dry I adhered my chipboard birdcage, which I painted with Craft Ink. My bird was first painted with white gesso, painted with Baja Blue re-inker and sponged with Midnight Muse around edges. Also added some glitter to the bird. Am going through a phase where I am not adding sentiments to my cards!!
Thank you so much for taking a look!

Fabulous birdie and his cage..I like how you carried through on the bird theme with your embossed white panel..great design! And I have no problem with cards that don't have a sentiment..that makes them all purpose and I think little pieces of art

VERY pretty Sue! Love your cool birdcage with that fantastic shape! Looks like you used the perfect embossing folder to go along with your cute little birdie too! LOVE all your layers and lovely ribbon trim! I agree completely about the sentiments, sometimes ya need 'em, and sometimes you don't! LOL

Beautiful card, Sue, with repeating design elements: stripes to bird cage bars, punched bird to embossed bird. It is all so pretty in the shades of blue and white.
