Crazy bird birthday.

Hi everyone, it's time for a new challenge over at Seize the Birthday.

The toppings theme is something to make us laugh,


or, as always, anything goes birthday.


I've had these bird crazy stamps for ages, and have paired this one with a cheeky sentiment stamp borrowed from my sister (yep I've still got them Mo!) 

I blended some distress oxide inks for the backround and spritzed it with water to add some texture.
The bird is perched on a birthday stamp from Happy Little Stampers.

The design team has some wonderful inspiration for you, so I hope you get the chance to play along.

I'm linking up to these challenges:
At Simon Says Stamp Wednesday, it's anything goes.
