Daring Cardmakers "Birds"

Just a quick post to share the card I made for Daring Card Makers 'dare' this week. The challenge was to put a bird or birds on your card. Here's my entry >>>


I've made this card for a special friend, and it's a special card! The birdie is actually a pin (brooch) that I made for her. It's felt and embroidery floss with a safety pin back.

The papers are my favorite My Minds Eye 'Be Merry' line on Bazzill cardstock. The dark green stitching was done on my machine. There's a snowflake Christmas Ornament behind the bird that can be removed as well.



I simply attached the birdie to the pink organza bow with the safety pin sewn onto the birds back.

A very simple card, but with a gift attached. I can't wait to mail my friend the card and see how she likes it! Thanks for looking, and Blessings Friends! Becky
