I chose this - http://totalwallcovering.com/p52638/goofy.aspx as my inspiration for the awesome bright colors.
I made the flower centers using glossy black card stock dotted with paint using a stylus then punching any size you want.
Drew the legs and freehand cut, used a marker for the lines, shaded one side with gray to add dimension.
the bird and flowers are popped up.
This little bird makes me smile

This is so sweet, Judy! The long legged bird couldn't be any cuter and I love the polka dot centers for the flowers! I really like the neat die cut swirls, too!

This is a truly wonderful design .... love your "additions" to the crazy bird image. The die cuts are the perfect additions.

I am grinning from ear to ear. I loved these KatzleKraft birds when I saw them on-line, but you have taken them to a whole new level Judy. I can't stop smiling when I look at this and i can't wait to see what else you create. P.S. I emailed them about postage...LOL it has gone up! I digress, pinned and faved!!

Love all the bird cards you've been making. This one is my favorite so far, especially how the curve die cuts and flowers frame your long legged bird! Very creative.

Oh, Judy, you've done it again! Hehe! I love this one and want to see more! Your coloring is fabulous, and she makes me smile too! Love how she is all decked out for spring - what a great layout with the border dies and how you've used them with the pretty flowers! Woo!! Hugs, sweet friend!
