For The Birds

Ever have a day that was just for the birds? 

 If you do, now there's a stamp set for it, too!!  

(Ha, ha!!)

So anyway, I was watching TV and 

wanted to be productive at the same time, 

and I came up with these cards.  

I just love how they turned out.  

That's how I get away with watching TV 

sometimes . . . "See all the great 

cards I got done this evening, honey?"

(my hubby is not a fan of TV - so I 

have to come up with reasons to watch sometimes)

I got crazy and cut everything out first and then

 began to put it all together, so no matter 

what image I decided to use, 

it had to fit into that size of rectangle 

I had already cut out.  Don't ask why.  

I don't know why I did that. 

I was probably enjoying my TV show.

Guess what?  I'm still on my watercoloring kick; 

I used the blender pens to color in these cute images.

I'm just crazy about how the Tasteful 

Trim was used for the bottom of the cards.  

I just cut out lots of different patterns, 

then held them up to each other 

until I thought it looked cool and then laid it on the card.  

I trimmed them down to size once 

adhered - and there you go!!

The embossing folder that was used 

for the cloudy sky?  

I have no idea what it was called.  I believe it's retired now.  

Looks cool, though, doesn't it?  

I kept it because I thought it was a great folder.  

I don't very often keep things once they retire.  

This was a keeper, though.
