The bird image is from Crafty Secrets Cotton Scraps and is printed on fabric. I was inspired by the bird calendar found here: http://www.lang.com/product/1001157
Naturals Ivory card base with Confetti Tan, and Blush Blossom that was clear embossed with Bella Toile. Pretties Kit pearls and Making Memories lace plus and antique button from my collection were used for embellishing.
