I'm sure I have a freebie bird cage somewhere, but I've gone for having this little Imaginisce bird break out through the netting in her garden .
A2 base stamped with Inspired by Nature in Versafine Olympia Green, embossed with clear EP and then sponged with Peeled Paint distress stain.
For the image panel I stamped and masked the bird with Versafine Black, then stamped and masked the flowers and some leaves. Masked off part of the bottom and stamped the chicken wire with Versamark and embossed with silver EP. I cut the panel with Labels 1.Coloured the panel with distress inks, and added a little gem to the flower and some Stickles to the centres of the flowers, and then edged with a black pen. Punched butterfly has some hearts, but I couldn't fit a ribbon on the card, not nohow!! If I could make room in the freezer I'd be bringing along some Baileys and chocolate chip icecream, but that's another not nowhow just now .

This is a Beautiful card with so much detailed work, Sabrina!! I love the cute little bird that has escaped the chicken wire to get to the other side and smell the pretty flowers!! I love the grassy bg with the butterfly too!!
