Wednesday night!

 OK, its only 6:30pm. That is just about night to me as I get up pretty early! Just wanted to share a couple more  'slim line' cards. I am not sure where the die is from.... maybe Catherine Pooler or Kat Scrappiness. Had it awhile and just decided that I really like it!!



                                        


                                              

    Surprised to see how much purple & blues I used. Maybe next time I will try some yellow & red!!

                              Hope you enjoyed looking!

September 20th

Monday, and it is Al's birthday today! He is getting ready to go to the dentist. How is that for a birthday present? Anyway, I thought I would take this time to share with you the 'last' (although, it really won't be last), of the 'birdhouse' cards. This is the Winter themed one.

I think there is more..... but that is it for now.
  Thanks for looking!

 It is the end of the week already!! I have more Spellbinders birdhouses to share. This is the 'fall' birdhouse, and yes, it is my favorite. Without the usual chatter, lets just show some of the cards.








Same 'fall' die, just cut shorter



They are easy to make and so versatile!
Thanks for looking,

 More cute little birdhouses! This is the Summer birdhouse. Looks pretty nautical! Lots of cute ideas online if you go look.

                                Needs kind of a 'summery' sentiment.






                                                    

                           Goofy little bird!  Thanks for looking today!

Friday,

 Good morning! This is a fun post for me as I absolutely love these dies. They are the dies from Spellbinder by Vicky Papaioanno. This is a selection of her videos, and the next link is a copy of the link for her birdhouse designs.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NmAWt244pbw The dies are 'birdhouses through the seasons'. Of course you need all 4 dies which include flowers, fences, branches, teeny seashells, pumpkins, leaves... just depends on the seasonal set you choose. Then you must add on the little bird dies. Here is the spellbinders link to the sweet birds set. https://www.spellbinderspaperarts.com/sweet-birds-on-a-branch-etched-dies-from-birdhouses-through-the-seasons-by-vicky-papaioannou/   Hope you enjoy my ideas & the many more links here!

             We will start today with the Spring set.





              Even though these are featured on black or green cs, This is the 'Spring set', This idea came from Yana Check this out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=En8Mg9_mYnE  



 

                          I am suprised that I only did one 'spring' birdhouse in another format. Don't you just love the silly birdie??
                     Tomorrow we share another birdhouse!
                                    Thanks for looking!!
