 How to make it:

 1. Lightly distress the front edges of a 6x6 kraft card and add ink. Cut a piece of pink spotty paper measuring 14.5cm x 14.5cm and a piece of bird cage paper measuring 14cm x 14cm. Distress the edges of both with scissors and add ink.

NB. to get this size of birdcage pattern I have used the A4 paper.

 2. Cut an piece of pink spotty paper to measure 14cm x 5.5cm  and a piece of pink heart paper to measure 13cm x 3.5cm. Distress and ink the edges of both pieces.

NB. To get this size of heart pattern I have used 6x6 paper

 3. Attach these pieces to the card front as shown, using foam tape under the spotty paper.

 4. Die cut 4 clouds - 2 from white card and 2 from music paper. I have used 6x6 paper to get the music pattern small enough for the clouds. Die cut the bird from white card. Ink the edges of all the pieces.

 5. Glue the white clouds to the card, then add the music clouds, offsetting slightly. Glue the bird to the centre the card.

 6. Die cut a white border and ink the edges. Glue to the card below the bird and add glitter dots.

 7. Use the heart die from the Wedding set to cut out 4 hearts (each pas will cut two ) and ink the edges.

 8. Glue to the card as shown. Add Glitter Glue. Add Glitter Glue to the clouds and the border die.

Cut a little butterfly from the inside cover of the 6x6 paper pad. Attach to the card with 3D foam squares.

9. You will find several little embellishments on the inside cover of the paper pad which can be cut out and used on your cards etc.
