Ted's Birthday

Today is my brother- in-law's birthday so I made him this card using a Susan Louise Clear.  For more information about this wonderful product, please see the website http://www.susanlouisearts.com/.  The site has a guest gallery which contains one of my cards.  Penny, the artist of the Susan Louise Clears, is a talented woman and I have taken many of her wonderful classes.  I chose the cardinal for Ted since he is into bird watching.
