Okay, so this card is a bit different for me. I love how it turned out although I think it is a bit over the top for my style. Still can't believe I created this. It was a work in progress and each time I visited the project I added something to it. Made it for my friend Jae's birthday and am entering it in three challenges: Sunday Stamper , Gingersnaps and Alter It Monthly. All of these have the theme of wings/birds/feathers. Let me know what you think!

I think your card is wonderful. The bird is so cool. I have been playing with the TH cage lately. It is a fun one.
Works for me and I do not think it is over the top. I love it - and the bird is divine.
