Teapotter cards are going out to Ralph for his 94th birthday, suggested by Sue (bensarmom) for her fil. Pat is our hostess and challenged us to use birds as Ralph loves to watch birds. I first stamped my sentiment in shaded spruce. I stamped the birds with black ink on 110lb. white and diecut them and glued down with Tombow. I diecut the fence in peach parfait and inked it up with desert sand- came out very subtle looking- camera didn't pick it up.
Also for Ann's alpha S challenge of Sunshine.

Oh Shirl, this is gorgeous. That dp was the perfect choice to create this great scene. I LOVE that you used geese on this card and it works so beautifully with the sentiment. Awesome card and I'm sure Ralph will feel uplifted when he received this beauty.
