A Brilliant Birthday


 The new challenge theme over at  Sugar Creek Hollow   is  'Word Play', and we are asked to focus on the sentiment. I have chosen to wish someone a  'Brilliant Birthday',  having the words take center stage on my card.  Please call over to get all the details and welcome our two guest designers  Karien and Maya. 
 Remember our style is vintage /shabby chic.
The layers all came from a paper pad from Craftwork Cards, with a little fussy cutting to add the bird matching the one beside the words.
I think you may know the shading colour, especially those to call by to visit me---Vintage Photo.

Thank you for taking time to stop by, the comments you leave are always appreciated
