Birthday #5 Who's a Pretty Boy . . .

 I have a male themed birthday card to share with you today and here it is . . .






I wish to enter these challenges . . .

Allsorts Challenge #763 Make Your Own Background  (2/3)

Cut It Up Challenge #295 Use a new tool or product or technique (1/3) - the budgerigar stamps are new

Moving Along With The Times Challenge #162 A New Craft Item (2/5) the budgerigar stamps are new

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge  Cute Critters (3/5)




I stamped the background using various Clarity stamps and Distress inks.  I used a Sizzix die with watercolour card then stamped the tone of my new cut budgerigar stamps onto the heart then coloured him with watercolours.  A die cut sentiment and my usual Tonic Nuvo Drops to finish.  Back soon x
