It is Clean and Simple week, so I started with a white card base and cut another white layer with a stitched rectangle die. A strip of black and white stripes from MFT was added on the side of the panel. I cut a SU Berry Blast card stock starburst using a retired SU die. The Happy Birthday die from MFT was cut in Lemon Lime card stock. I used distress ink on the circle to make it look like the sky. The little bird is from Clearly Besotted -Some Birdie Loves You. I colored her with Copic Markers and added a few music notes for fun! The sentiment is from the same stamp set. Wink of Stella and a white gel pen was used on the eye.
