Large all occasion card featuring a cute little bird, handmade background and film strip filled with little birds


 This little bird is from Melonheadz which is a favorite of mine!!!  I started with a large black card and added the handmade background which I made a while back.  I die cut the film strip (TH - SX) from black cardstock and added some little birds singing their hearts out.  They were printed on transparency for a different project.  I watercoloured the little bird to coordinate and added some rows of paper piercing using my pattern tracing wheel.  After auditioning him on my card I decided I needed a bit more texture on the bottom so I added three strips of embossed cardstock before adding it to my card front using 3D foam tape.  I found this fun musical paper button in my stash so I layered it onto a black circle punchie and tied on yellow crochet thread before adding it with 3D foam tape as well. Therese
