Hello everyone...It's my turn to host the TLC challenge and the challenge this week is to use halves!!
My card features the adorable Little Birdy set from Woodware Stamps. The birdcage was stamped twice... one was stamped directly on the patterned paper and the other one was stamped on the paper, cutout, and popped up with foam dots. The little birds were stamped on white card stock, colored with Copics, and also popped up with foam dots. The sentiment from an A Muse set called Avian Notes was stamped on a Die-namics diecut and the papers are from Webster's Pages Life's Portrait dp....the sewing, twine and button finish it off. I hope you will join us for this fun challenge!!!!

These little birds are just precious! I love how you used half of the birdcage and half of the sentiment panel too - lending perfect balance to your card!

Joan, this was a fun challenge and with your beautiful card as an example, you've shown how we don't need a whole image to create a wonderful card! Your card is so pretty and I love the 1/2 cage for the cute birdies.
