This is it!

   
   Reminder: It is the last day of March which means it is the last day of Sale-a-bration - the last day for Free Stamps (among other things)! Click HERE for details or to order. 

   And a big thank you to Cynthia for awarding me the Leibster Blog award and Melissa for the Versatile Blog award. Thanks ladies!! 

   I have been thinking about today's card for a few days now. I wanted to make it fancier but time was a factor because I needed a card to send out to my daughter. So I ended up with this clean and simple card and you know what? I love it! 
  Bethany, my daughter, loves music so it was a perfect choice. All I did to make this card was stamp the bird cage from the Aviary stamp set. Then using the Stamp-a-ma-jig, I stamped the bird on the top of the cage. I didn't want to put the bird in the cage because I wanted it to be free. And because he is free, he is singing a happy tune!

  The musical notes were punched from Newsprint designer paper and adhered to the Very Vanilla cardstock. I was going to add a sentiment but changed my mind. I felt it would detract from the simplicity.


 Stamps: Aviary
 Paper: Very Vanilla cardstock, Newsprint designer paper
 Ink: Basic Black
 Other: Stamp-a-ma-jig, 3/4" circle punch, 1" circle punch

Have a creative day!
