This is for my amazing Aunt who is turning 100 very soon. For her 90th she was disappointed that she didn't get any funny/humorous cards, so ever since then I have tried to humor her! She is still going strong! She lives alone, still drives (bought a new car a year ago), is in good health and sharp as a tack!
This started with Gina K Inspiration Mosaic and then stamped the birds, leafy branches, and footprints into the blocks by masking off as needed. Colored all the birds with alcohol markers all on a Gina K heavyweight card base (no bleed through). It was too plain, so masked off and blended green Distress Ink around the edge.
Come play along with us and Time Out and you could be chosen as our next Winner of the Week and or a winner over at Time out. If you are our WOW then you would become eligible at a chance to become our next Guest Designer! Please limit your entries to 3.

I'm sure your aunt will cherish this, Sue. The sentiment is fun and I love any card with a bird on it, especially an owl. So sweet of you to keep her sense of humor going.
Loving your fun collage of birds Sue. All different, colourful and so cool. Nice greenery and the coloured background just makes then pop out perfectly. Your Aust will love it and you for making such a FUN card for her 100th birthday.
First off, congratulations to your aunt - she sounds amazing! And second wow what a brilliantly executed one-layer card! I just love the expressions on the faces of your birds and this perfect sentiment and from the sounds of your aunt, she will too! It is a real honour to be collaborating with the talented JUGS team for this challenge, hugs Kate (DT Time Out)!
Your aunt sounds absolutely wonderful; reaching 100 and still retaining her independence and sense of humour is nothing short of awesome! She will love this card; it's a hoot!
