Happy Bird-Day!

Hello!

Bacon Bit Juliana, here, today!

I just LOVE the image, Bird Pants!
It cracks me up! (and reminds me of one or two people)

This card was made using a 3D paper piecing technique.

The image is three layers "tall" in some places, and only one in others.  Foam tape separates the layers.

He is ready to PARTAY!

Speaking of parties...
