In my Pinterest travels, which now probably suck up no less than two hours each day, I came upon a card that had lots of birdcages, all filled with different birds. It was really cute. I did not bother to repin it, apparently, so I can't link to it. However, it obviously left its impression on me.
I am thinking of my far away Mama this week, and I used the cage idea to make her a card.
I made this--
This is made on a GinaK Designs Kraft base, and I used My Mind's Eye Quite Contrary paper to stamp my cages. The cages are stamps from A*muse Studio, the Life is a Song set. The fly away birds are from GKD, my friend Melanie Muenchinger's Gifts from the Sea set. Oh yes, my panel backing piece is a random scrap, but the backing for my letters (which are Studio G) is done with SU Daffodil Delight. The Button is from Basic Grey.
I popped the letters in the word "miss" up with foam tape, and used foam tape as well on some of the cages.
Simple card. I was hoping the yellow would keep it on the cheery side, since it's not the most "up" of cards...
Thanks for stopping by!
