Beautiful card Sandra - my guess is I'd need a bigger machine than the Cuttlebug for those wonderful Grand Dies? :(

Glorious day here yesterday - over three hours of which I spent driving to and from Oxford and then sitting in a (yawn) meeting for four hours. What a waste of a lovely day huh :(

Hugs, Di xx

Love the shape of the card and those papers. Oddly enough I was looking through my digi paper sets looking for something else but came across some lovely Christmas designs which I thought would make lovely CAS cards and one of those had a bird on it! Hugs Mrs A.
p.s. sent your packet off yesterday.
