Songbirds for a Friend

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

Today I want to wish a special friend a very happy birthday.


I've foiled with Pewter foil and Pinkfresh Studio Hot Foil Plate on mixed media paper.
Then colored with Zigs and die cut with the matching die.

I die cut again from white cardstock and layered the die cuts.

Want to see the shine?
