Birthday Songbird

OMG!  I am so in love with the Songbirds stamps & dies from Papertrey Ink!  These are the cutest little birds I've ever seen!

I adore the tiny details that are die cut from the birds, and the embossed stitching on the leaves.  These look awesome in bright, bold colors!

I inked up the edges of my bird with a red-orange ink, and the little leaves with a darker green.  I think it helps the bird to pop off the page.

This set includes several musical bars that fit on the wavy banner die cut.  This one is a line of the Happy Birthday song.  This is why I chose this set for the MFT Sketch Challenge.  :)

I stamped some of the coordinating flower stamps on the inside of my card, along with a great birthday sentiment from another PTI stamp set.  I'm also entering this card in the ShowCASe Your Style challenge.  The theme is birthdays!  :)
