All things Birdie

little yellow folk birdie

Here at the Summerhouse we love all things birdie, you could say there is a bit of a birdie theme going on.

Patchwork Birdie from the local garden centre

Birdie cushions

In fact the cushions were the inspiration for my Birdie cards, I've made three so far, I think I'm  becoming a bit addicted. I usually just make a card and then move onto another design, but not with the birdies.

First I made this one.

Followed by this one.

and then this one.

I really can't stop making them, I don't know where it will all end.

Birdie Card recipe.

First I made a Birdie template and cut out my bird using pink embossed flower paper from my stash. 

I then cut out a wing using pretty floral papers and used a button for the eye. (upcycled from my old PJ's)

I then attached the bird to a pale blue card.

I used one of my lovely Stabilo pens (brown) to draw the branch.

Then stuck Mulberry paper flowers on with a teeny tiny seed pearl beads stuck in the centres. I stuck them on with Diddy Dots, you've got to love a glue dot, I know I do.

The supplies I used

 
I hope you are all have a happy birdie weekend.

Happy Crafting
