This is my card for today's Featured Stamper Challenge - to CASE Darlene (akronstamperdpk). Darlene has an amazing and huge gallery of gorgeous cards! I had a hard time picking, but chose this beautiful creation to CASE: Birthday Birds by akronstamperdpk at Splitcoaststampers
I have the same bird stamp, so I kept that and Darlene's layout. I changed:
-the colors
-the ribbon treatment
-the stamp sets (except the birds)
-added piercing
This is also for yesterday's Inspiration Challenge which was to be inspired by the wall decor at the Creative Wallcovering website. I chose these wallpaper cut-outs for my inspiration: http://www.creativewallcovering.com/...l-12509_lg.png
Thanks, Judy, for filling in and bringing us such an awesome FS today and huge congratulations, Darlene, on the well-deserved honor of being Featured Stamper! Your work is wonderful!

Ohh, I like the simplicity of this card and I like the way you colored the birdies.
