Tuesday Trigger: Happy Birthday to You!


Cath at Moxie Fab World has a very special Tuesday Trigger in honor of her mother's milestone birthday this week. While her mom enjoys Hawaii, we are challenged to make a birthday card inspired by this photo.



I love the whimsical, folk art look of the Trigger and pulled out a few dies and felt to try capture the feel  on my card.




The bird was challenging, as I cut it first with a Tim Holtz Caged Bird die and then had to blindly line up the bird with the wing on the die to get the cutout look I wanted. 



The leaves are cut with the TH Regal Crest die and the flowers are My Favorite Things Pretty Posies Die-namics - all the felt is MFT and a dream to cut.

Once again, I am also linking up to Simon Says - Anything Goes.

Thanks for stopping by,

Jacquie
