Our challenge for the month of May is

CELEBRATIONS

Here's my card, celebrating a birthday!

For my card, I used a retired PoppyStamps die called Flock of Birds. There are several other bird dies currently on sale at PoppyStamps. i die cut the five birds using white cardstock and added color with a small ink blending brush and distress inks - wilted violet, cracked pistachio and mermaid lagoon. Using an adhesive mat, helped to minimize the ink that I got on my fingers - LOL!. I glued the die cuts to create these five birds. For the sentiment, I used a scrap of 100 lb bristol and ink smooshed the same three distress inks onto it. After drying, I die cut the sentiment using the retired PoppyStamps' Happy Birthday Poe Script die. I used a circle cut from purple cardstock to help make the birds and sentiment stand out. I adhered the elements and then adhered the circle to a light gray A2 card panel. I adhered the panel to a white A2 card base to complete my card.

We'd love to see your CELEBRATION card in our gallery. Please tell us what the celebration is, as it may not be obvious to us. Also, remember to use at least one die cut.
