Fancy Ornate Birdcage



Happy Friday everyone!

Today I have a card using two new dies from the Fancy Floral Release, the Fancy Ornate Birdcage Die and Fancy Floral Lace Border Die!



 
 
 
I love how delicate these new dies are and how nicely they cut!  For my card, I used Maripsa Designer Papers for the background and the birdcage, then green and tan cardstock for the rest.  I added a little Diamond Stickles to the bird in the cage to highlight it, then added a sentiment, trim, bow, button, and pearls.  Very easy card to put together!
 
Here's a little closeup of the dies for you...

  6. Hello Kathy,
    The paper is so beautiful, so it does need nothing more than the cage with the bird. All together looking so good. I like it.
    With love HennyB:)
