Happy Birthday sweet Tiffany!!

Happy Wednesday! It's time for a new Tiffany Doodles challenge!! But today is another special day, it is sweet Tiffany's Birthday! Happy happy Birthday Tiff, may your day be fabulous!!! And full of happy surprises. And cake :)

Now to the challenge. This month's theme is "Birds & Windows". Fun, isn't it? Here is my sample:


I used Tiffany's adorable Warbler, colored it with distress inks and cut it out. I used the same distress inks to stamp my background with this Tim Holtz stamp set. The sentiment and the script stamp are Hero Arts.

You have time to enter this challenge until July 31, 2010 for the chance to win up to 7 digis from Tiffany Doodles! Go, check it out here and have fun. Btw, did you know Tiffany is offering many digis for free? Don't miss her Freebie Thursday for new digis!

Have a beautiful day and thanks for visiting!

Hugs,
Vanessa

What a beautiful, calming card, Vanessa! I love that image!
It's good to catch up in Blogland finally - I see you've been a busy bee with elderflower. I nearly took my eye out with Elderflower fizz the other day, think I left it brewing too long in an airtight bottle LOL! Still tasted scrummy though ;D
Hugs,
