The Birds

I've been hoarding these chipboard birds from Maya Road. To tell you the truth, I really didn't know what to do with them, but I really like them. They sat and sat and I took them out every so often and tried to make them fit on whatever card I was working on. No go. They never seemed right.

Yesterday, I was trying out a new technique using the cuttlebug, sandpaper, and acrylic paint. I love the lettuce and purple colors....they just seem so different together, yet appealing. Once I had the card base done, I thought about those birds and decided that this was the time to use them. I painted them with acrylic paint and sprinkled glitter on them.



Voila! A card is born.

I like how it turned out. Hope you do too! Thanks for stopping by,
