Terracotta Tile, Coastal Cabana, Granny Apple Green
This is a Case of Susie "Australia's card. Thanks for the inspiration, Susie!
I changed some of the colors, added a fence, glitter and flowers!
My crazy over the top friend is celebrating her 70th birthday this month! I added the red feathers because she has outlandish red hair!
The background was done by swiping ink into tin foil and then smashing card stock into ink until you are happy with results. I added foliage and dots of pearl drops! Crazy Bird was stamped, fussy cut, added brads for buttons, lace for skirt and feathers for hair!
Thanks for stopping by!
Thanks to Susie Australia for the inspiration!

Oh how hilarious Fran! You did well by Susie with all the edges ringed with the number 70 and your fantastic Crazy bird with impossibly long legs!! The background is fantastic and I love the flaming red hair in tribute to the recipient!

Oh, my goodness, Francie! You did a fabulous job of casing Susie's awesome work. At first I thought the card was Susie's. I love the crazy bird and she is dressed to the nines. Her red feathered hair is bold and striking and her lace skirt is wonderful. The background is gorgeous and I love the tulips. Great artwork, Francie!

This looks like a little bird like me waiting to do the happy dance for spring to come on and get here. Such a cute card.

I thought i was having a Seniors moment, i couldnt remember making this LOL. Fran I am tickled pink that I inspired you, every itty bitty detail makes me smile. I just know you would have had a truck load of fun making this and your red head friend is in for a treat. Needless to say this brilliant chickie is going straight into My Favs.
