Southern Belles July Swap

Visiting my bird feeder are these beautiful birds called Blue Buntings.  I just love the color so I decided to make this card for them.  I did the center part and then could not decided how to finish it.  Nothing I did was perfect for this card.  Then fate stepped in by the name of Patti McDermott, a fellow Stampin' Up demonstrator, she had done a card very similar to the one I was trying to attempt and I loved it.  To finish my card I cased her background exactly and I was able to finish my card.  So thank you Patti McDermott for your help.
