This is the thank-you card I am going to send, rather than the one I made yesterday, as a thank-you for a lovely surprise envelope full of dies.
Stamped the hat, masked it, stamped the bird and coloured them. Sponged in some grass, then trimmed the panel down, leaving the beak out-of-the box. Glossy Accents added to beak, Stickles to the flower in the hat.
I used an old background from my spare backgrounds box, acrylic paints and some shimmer from something, with a stencil. I also used acrylic paint for the base layer. To finish off I added some flowers and a sentiment.
I think, like me, this bird has trouble finding hats small enough to fit her! I usually find mine fit best if I have my hair up!!

LOVE the way you dressed up this crazy bird - "to the gills" with her fancy hat!! You tied all the colors in her hat wonderfully with the background and your lovely punched flowers. Whoever gets this will have a great big smile on her face!!
