CAAH - #1 - Follow the sketch Challenge

Hi Everbody!

Well I finally finished all but one lot of paperwork before I decided that I had deserved a well earnt break. So I decided to make my card for the very first Card and a Half Challenge, where we had to follow the below sketch.


I feel a little bit slack because I was really inspired by Tania B's entry and had decided to use the same images - the Kaszazz birdcage and birdie stamps. Anyway onto the card......


I am absolutely stoked with how this card has turned out. Did you notice my little tag that says Happy Bird-Day?????? - I treated myself to the Ezy-Press Tag dies in my last order.

Materials used are:
4215 SB Bazzill Basics - Bahama
4778 SB Paper Enchanted - Alpine Dream
4779 SB Paper Enchanted - Cherry Blossom
9127 Card Pack - A5 250gsm (100) - White
2925 Brads Mini Round (100) - Pewter
1601 Ribbon 25m - 1/2" Grosgrain - White
71007 - ColorBox Fluid Chalk Inkpad - Prussian Blue
TIM19541 Distress Inkpad - Black Soot
4420KI Birdcage Stamp
4413KC Little Birdie Stamp
Twine from Stampin Up
Cheers!

PS - Tania if you think that my card is too similiar to yours, just let me know and I will get Helen to remove it from the challenge.
