I love this Release, and LOVE the CottageCutz Birdcage with 2 birds , and the CottageCutz Lace Flower Doily, both are a must have for your collection!!!

For the Lace flower doily I cut it out in white card stock and then distressed the edges with tim holtz ink, and some gold ink too. I also added some pink pearls to the bottom and 1 to the top. I ruched up the seam binding the Really Reasonable Ribbon carries, a made a bow with it and added a flower.


On the bottom I ruched up more seam binding to create a bigger bow and then added a feather,flowers, and flourish of pearls.

I love love love using the Seam Binding from Really Reasonable Ribbon. On my card I ruched up the Seam Binding to give it that pretty look. I made bows at the ends of the YOU banner. I also used the seam binding to hold my banner together.
