Be Joyful & Sing {Gaby Abby Challenge Glitter It Up}

Isn't this the cutest bird!!  Inspired by Paula, LowCountry Paisley.  The bird was a freebie from MyScrapChick and may be purchased for two bucks.  The paper is from my stash, who knows how long I've had it.  The holly and ribbon are Creative Memories stickers, surprised they still sticked!  I remembered to do some embossing on my Cuttlebug, yay!  Can't tell on but I used transparent micro fine glitter on the bird's body and the roof.  The Christmas lights are from Walmart, got them a few weeks ago for $1.99.  I adhered them with Aileens Fast Grab glue.  I'm entering this card over at Gaby Abby SEI Challenge, the challenge is to use glitter on any project...yes, I sure did,  it's on the card, my table, my clothes, I glittered it up!

So here's your free cut file.  I used it on the inside of the card.  I cut at 6.367 x 1.835, please don't cut any smaller.  The font is dainty.  I think it's best to use Cri-Kit pens for the top layer, unless you have super duper patience.  I don't, I had already sent it to my Cricut when I realized it was dainty, blah.  The bird house was a freebie from Cricut Design, but I don't have the blog address to link.  Sorry!
