Bird Cage Card

This card is my official welcome to spring. Ah, here come birds, flowers, butterflies and bunnies! I'm happy that I finally used the Tim Holtz bird cage die that I purchased a few months ago. However, the main reason I made this card was to highlight the quilled paper roses. It is my hope to eventually teach a class or at least offer the pre-cut unquilled roses for sale. It is very easy and economical to make them. The die cut bird is also from the Tim Holtz die set and the scrolling greens plus worded label are Sizzix die cuts. The little gold dots and feather are from Ben Franklin Crafts. Oh, I almost forgot to tell you that the American Crafts printed papers I used (plus other selected ones) are now on sale (50% off I think) at BFC. I'll let you know if and when I set up a card class at Ben Franklin Crafts in Hilo. Thanks for stopping by to read my blog. I hope you've enjoyed this post. Please feel free to comment...I love knowing what's on your mind.

  4. Your card turned out so pretty Lynn! Love the soft pastel colors that you chose. Maybe you will go on the tv show to teach how to make your flowers.
    Have a great weekend!
