Happy Birdday!!

Good Friday morning everyone....hope you are having a great day so far!!! The weather here has been beautiful the last few days. I think I'll work outside a little today to get my flower beds ready for some spring flowers....the neighbors have daffodils blooming already!!! Anyway...
I had this fun little wooded birdcage and wanted to use it with the Bo Bunny Crush paper because the paper had the cutest little black birdcages all over it. The wood birdcage was colored with a black marker and the birds from Layers of Color's Birdday Party set were added. The sentiment from the same set was layered on real red and the wrinkled seam binding, button, and twine finished it off.

This is for a few challenges:
1. ABC Challenge - old-fashioned or vintage look
2. Stampin Royalty - use markers
3. Tuesday Throwdown - buttons
4. Terrifically Thrilling Thursday Challenge - Show Us what You Got!

Thanks for dropping by this morning.....hope your day is fabulous!!!!

Love the paper with the birdcage and the birds, especially with the ribbon on top. Have fun outside, I know Lucky likes me to walk him more when it warm. Have a great weekend.
