Fabulous and fun challenge to-day. I used a Crafts too you flower folder for the background and coral and blue ink for the stamping. The sweet bird is from Elizabeth Craft Designs (one of my favourites) and sponged with brilliant blue and coral. The bird, branch and flowers were all cut from my scrap bag...no not a folder..a bag! The Happy Birthday greeting is also a Crafts too you folder but I have cut each greeting and taped them back together to get more use from them.

Your background is beautiful! Love the sweet bird on the flowery branch, and the colors of the bird repeating the bg colors. Your subtle greeting below the image panel is perfect.

Everything about this is so cute. The bird turned out so well and the little peach flowers are terrific. The combination of the die cut word and the embossed greeting looks wonderful.
