My blogging friend Mary Marsh is hosting the Our Daily Bread Designs - In Time: On Assignment Challenge (SNTODBD16) The challenge is to use ODBD stamps and to use a bird with a seasonal theme.

So I thought I'd join in the fun! Since I have the "In God We Trust' ODBD stamp set - I made my bird card with a Patriotic Theme using red, white and blue.
