Little birdie

The sweet little bird and the branch are from the Straight from the nest cartridge. I cut the bird and the branch with CCR. The phrase "tweetheart" is also from this cartridge and is cut at 1". The phrase was too large for the card base, so I cut it up in two parts. I added the phrase "heart" inside the card.
