Yep I also got carried away with close up pics

Not much for details.Paper was from KaiserCraft Chapter One.Birdcage and bird chipboard pieces from Maya Road.Which I covered with Ranger paint,Smooch paint and finally spritzed with Perfect pearls mists. I used Making Memories glitter alphabet.And a final touch of 7 Gypsies Key.
