Birds on my brain...lol!



I've been having so much fun with this new 7-Gypsies paper (Conservatory - Aviary) that I decided to make a book on bird study:) I started out with a Maya Road birdcage chipboard book. I painted portions of it with gesso and then went over parts of it with Claudine Hellmuth's studio acrylic paint (love this stuff!) in yellow pastel. Then I cut some papers and added them along with bird images and torn paper from the same line. Added some Maya Road ribbons and some Kaisercraft flowers. So fun! All items are available at my favorite scrapbooking store - Hannahs in Antioch, IL. Have a great weekend everyone and thanks for stopping by!!!

Fun Project :)


Had a little creative time recently and made this vertical banner for my favorite scrapbooking store - Hannahs (Antioch, IL). It's made with the new 7-Gypsies paper "Conservatory Collection - Aviary" that I was so anxious to work with. A very simple, inexpensive and fun project for those of you who love birds like I do:) It's just the thing to hang on a door or on your wall. This would even be a great project for kids to make as a gift for their teacher, now that school will be back in session. Hope you have some time to make something creative yourself....Thanks for stopping by!
