CAS on Sunday #16 and Muse #34

Hello, Blogger friends.  The weather has been is going to be up and down here in Michigan.  Record breaking highs on Tuesday, hot yesterday, cooler today, and Saturday morning is looking like frost. Ughh. I'm not ready for that just yet.  I love fall and the changing colors, but wish it would wait until mid-October.

It just so happens that the CAS on Sunday and Muse challenges collided this week.  Here's the Muse inspiration by Therese Calvird.


 CAS on Sunday's challenge is "Welcome Home" - make a "new home" theme card.  And so I did this.


The cage and bird are cut from Straight from the Nest.  I wanted to make it smaller but couldn't get my Cricut to cut it any smaller than this without tearing the tiny bars.  I used my chain die for the hanger and embossed both it and the bottom of the cage with gold embossing powder.  The sentiment is from my computer.

Thanks for stopping by.  I'll visit you if you leave a comment to let me know you were here.
