...you old bird!



Here's a birthday card I did a few weeks ago and realized I hadn't posted. It's for a good friend of ours and since we're all a bunch of "old birds" I think it's just perfect for her. The bird and sentiments are from an Inkadinkado set. I used my Nesties and cut some mats for the bird and colored with Prismas and OMS and then added some doodling around the edge. I used my Fiskar's punch for the bottom edge and then my brand new MS Bird-on-a-Wire border punch. I also punched some little flowers and added a few golden gems.



Now I have a little sneak peek of something I've been working on for my scrapping buddies. The three of us from Tucson are going up to Phoenix next weekend to my dear friend Carole Beath's for 2 1/2 days of card-making - that is if can stop laughing long enough to make a card. So here's the peek and I'll post the entire thing when I get back next Sunday. I hope everyone has a fabulous week.
