For my summer theme, i immediately thought of birds...my yard and the park I walk in are full of them. We even have bright colorful ones here in Orange County. Somehow domestic parrots got loose years ago and we have a huge wild parrot population. They fly over my house every evening in the summer...boy are they loud. For the CT0619- all the bells and whistles- i made a very busy card. The frame is 4 layers of heavy cardstock and the leaves all have 3 layers. The birds are two layers, with the wings and tails of the top layer folded out. They also have bling eyes. I love when I actually get a card made. TFL, Francie

I love when you get a card made too, Francie! Such wonderful eye candy, love all the bright colors and layers. Adding the dots to the sponged clouds is a fun whimsical touch that's perfect for those fabulous birds. I've seen shows about the wild parrots, must be marvelous to see them as you walk in the park.
