Happy Birthday ATC

ATC
I created this ATC with a free birdie image from A Day for Daisies.  I colored the image with MS Paint and then chalked the bird's belly with dark blue and purple. I used my Cricut cutter and paper punches to cut out the paper elements for the ATC.

Top Tip - Paper piecing is an easy way to add a design or some interest to your image. Print your image out twice and cut pieces out of one image to place on your base design. Easy peasy!!!

I paper pieced and used a bit of foam on the birdies wing to give it some added interest and some "pop".

I am entering this ATC in the following challenges:

 Wicked Wednesday - ATC for birthday
A Day for Daisies - #55 pop it up
ATC's with Attitude -#24 anything goes
Creative Card Crew - #21 birds
Top Tip Tuesday - #87 things with wings
Simon Says - dies + punches

I hope you will give paper piecing a try. Please check out the above listed sites and leave comments for the Design Team members.
