Case Study Challenge #171

I just love the inspiration for this weeks Case Study Challenge! I loved it when I first saw it on Moxie Fab World and I couldn't let the opportunity pass me by to case this image.

I stamped the image on the die cut bird and then used masking fluid to cover the image. When it was dry, I used various inks and spritzed them. The hardest part was waiting for it to dry!
I then stamped the images on the card, die cut the birdcage and mounted the cage and bird on the card.
The stamps are Floral Applique from Penny Black, the bird die is from Memory Box and the cage die is from Tim Holtz.

I'm making a card set for a Christmas gift, so I preferred not to add a sentiment.
