Betsy's Birdie for a Birthday

I made this card recently for a masculine birthday card.  I wanted to try something monochromatic, which is just not my usual style.  I turned out really cute, but photographed really badly, so I was not going to show it off.  Today I thought about trying to remake it to my liking, or to try to rephotograph, but decided that I like things the way there were, and you would all get the idea.  I used the bird from Betsy's Blossom stamp set, and the salutations are from Bring on the Cake, with a little cake inside from Happy You.  The paper is Summer Smooches print with Not Quite Navy and Island Indigo.  A little birdie told me that there is a birthday boy who will need a card on Easter :) 

Hope they like the birdie card over at Papercraft Star Challenge #137 this week.

Come back again tomorrow, 'cause I am heading back to the craft room.
