Considering I have limited use of my right hand (fractured my Humerus~not so funny~bone four weeks ago),  I was trying to go with a more CAS style.  The Beautiful Butterflies Layers and Dies popped onto a printed vellum sheet I've been hoarding for years :-), seemed to be the easiest.  
PS:  I have to tell you, this "easy" card took me two+ hours to complete  :-}

I used Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist on my stencil of leaves, watered it down with a fine water mister then applied it to Stampers Select White card stock.  The Song Birds leaves and bird dies were added with double sided  tape and popped up off the edge of the white panel.  I embossed the pink card base with a woodgrain folder from The Paper Studio.
