Calendar Birds

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

We're almost at year's end.  It seems like it just started and woosh, it's over!

Instead of a year in review, I have some cards that I made and never 
put on the blog.  Many are from my UFO box.


I did some fussy cutting from a calendar page from 2021!


I had an extra page from this month and couldn't let it go to waste.


Challenges:




Card Recipe
Stamps:  Peaceful Time (PB)
Ink:   Versafine Onyx Black, Faded Jeans, Tattered Rose, Abandoned Coral, Peeled Paint, Mowed Lawn, Vintage Photo, Gathered Twigs (DI)
Paper:  Neenah Solar White 
Other:  Caran d'ache (Olive), Layered Leaves EF (SU)


Enjoy!

I adore this sweet little bluebird, Bonnie! He looks just lovely perched on his branch amongst your lovely, embossed leaves!
So, you know we've had a little bit of snow - which poses a problem when one's sliding door gets frozen shut, and 12 Bluebirds arrive for their supper! I rigged up a platform that could hold their dish and held it outside our bedroom window. One little whistle and they all came 'running!' Seems they'll follow us anywhere as long as we have that dish of meal worms!

You fussy cut that? You are one, brave soul but it sure made for two wonderful cards. Love that water colored bird and the wonderful embossed background.

What a good idea, Bonnie, to post some cards you made but never posted - I should do that too! Love your sweet birds and the colours you chose for them! Perfect with the embossed backgrounds and colour-matched borders. Great notecards!

I know why you are so good at coloring birds after seeing the scene you have from your deck. You must get to see all kinds of birds. Both cards are beautiful. I love that embossed background.

These are two lovely cards. The embossed background beautifully presents these lovely birds.

Beautiful Bonnie, you have matched those pretty birds with the perfect embossed backgrounds.

These are both so beautiful, Bonnie. I have this stamp/die and love it. I'm happy to see your past calendar pictures on cards. What a lovely embossed background for the bird. Sweet!
