Thanks Birdies


I can't believe I didn't do much crafting over the holidays in fact I did a couple of pages of scrapbooking and thats for a DT challenge and that was it. I went in my craftroom for a couple of hours yesterday but really I might has well not bothered it didn't go well.
This card I made before the Christmas break, I received my order of the new dies for Diecember from Simon Says Stamps and it included the Songbird Branch and what better than one bird but two. I cut two out and flipped one over because I embossed the back it hides the fact it the wrong way.
The papers are Teresa Collins Nine and Co, I layered the papers how I wanted it and used the Stitched Rectangle over it all, which is the same why I did the stitched circle. The thanks is also from Simon Says Stamps and I cut it out twice so I could layer it.
I'm pretty sure I got a sketch for the layout but haven't a clue where now. Apologies for the crooked photographer some things never change.

I love these birds Debby and they flip perfectly. I think the design is so clever too and the bp's together with the stitched dies and the lacy border make for one really pretty card. x

What a gorgeous card Debby, great birdies. I can't seem to get any enthusiasm for making anything at the moment, I think it's because it seems to be so dark all of the time!! xx

Lovely card. You have such a great talent for framing items so that it doesn't look like the image is all boxed in. I love how you extend the branches and birds beyond the circle. I can learn a lot from you, Debby! If only I could remember it all when I start making my own cards!!!!!
