Cards in Envy - For the Birds

Welcome to another Cards in Envy Challenge!  For this challenge we are to create an A2 sized card (5.5" x 4.25") that has something with a bird as the main theme.  Only requirement is that the card is 1/4" or less in thickness in order to fit in an envelope.

For my card, I chose to create a tri-fold (S-Fold or Z-Fold) card.   My bird image is from the Cricut cartridge Birthday Bash.

Designer Paper = My Mind's Eye "Sky's the Limit"; 6" x 6" pack.
Cricut cartridges = Birthday Bash, Elegant Edges.
