Just Because...

Have you ever sat down to make a card...

and you know EXACTLY what you want that card to look like...

so you choose your favorite cupcake stamp and copic colors...

then, something happens...

 

and you end up with a paper-pieced birdie instead?

Well, that's what happened to me today! LOL

 

Check out this cutie:

 

I created my background by adhering a few punched hexagons-layering some with foam tape, as you can see in the close-up.  The branch and bird (both from {ippity}'s Fall for You stamp set) are paper-pieced, with some glittery accents (Cotton Candy, Yellow, and Lime Green Stickles.)  I added a little wisp of white feathers to the birdie for a touch of whimsy, and that inspired my sentiment: "just because"!  (Sentiment from {ippity}'s "How YOU Doin' stamp set.)

 

Thanks for popping by today-hope this little birdie made you smile on a Monday!
