I think I have a thing for Birds...




It seems that birds are HOT right now! and I've fallen for them. I can't wait to get my hands on the new SU set with owls and then Unity came out with this awesome bird set, Birds of a Feather. That's the set I used for these two cards. There are a ton of sentiments included in the set, too. I think this sweet bird in the nest image is so versatile. I made this first card for my BFF that just moved into her new house yesterday. I thought the bird sitting in her nest was great for a new home card. It could also be used for a new mom, an Easter, or a Spring card. You know me, I love versatility!
I guess I got in the Christmas spirit with this second card. Blame it on the paper. I was going through my stash of scraps and found some strips of the retired SU paper, Wintergreen. I paired this bird with the word Peace and added some Burgundy accents and finished it off with some organdy ribbon. I used my copics to color both images and framed the main images with the rectangle nestabilities.
Thanks for stopping by! Have a great day!
Hugs,
