Spring time tweety birds...

I know that fall is barely upon us...tomorrow is officially the start of fall in fact. However, I have had this darling birdhouse stamp sitting on my desk BEGGING me to play with it for a while now...and hey, who am I to deny a begging stamp, right? *sigh* So many stamps, so little time....  ;)

Did you hear that DeNami Design is having a little challenge? Well they are and we all know how I am a sucker for anything DeNami...I mean being a co-conspirator of a blog dedicated to them should have given you a clue as to just how much I love their stamps and other products :)

I actually have two cards I'm submitting...I had to whittle it down from four so no judging on the fact that I'm submitting 2...that was hard work!! How could I just pick one when I could barely pick just two?? :S



I did learn one thing while making this card...fussy cutting tweetys is for the birds!! (*snickers* I made a funny)

Okay, seriously though, I don't know about you, but I kinda really heart this little card. Paulina has me addicted to this color combo and it's perfect for the little scene I created. All the little tweetys are trimmed in citrone glitter and I colored the houses in pink then fully glittered them with strawberry freeze glitter...it's glitter-riffic! The white panel is popped up on foam tape, but the dang humidity from the rain was playing havoc with my cardstocks...everything in the house feels clammy and my cardstocks are even kinda wilty...The whole card is even kinda sagging in the stand...jeeze >.<






Please leave me a comment and let me know what you think....good or bad....or even better - what would you have done differently??...crafty minds wanna know!

*snicker* at your little funny....yes fussy cutting is for the birds sometimes but it is so worth it in the end.....

Now you wanna know what came in my head when I saw this - ready - I am gonna sing it....a little John Cougar Meloncamp....that's right... "Little pink houses for you ane me". (hahaha I crack myself up!)

Congrats on the win!! I've always loved the birdhouse stamp, but I LOVE it even more with those cure little birdies. Great use of "older" and "newer" DeNami stamps.
