A Little Birdy

Oh how I wish SPRING was here... I can't even feel it right now... but at least we are getting rain today and not snow... so that is a good sign.. we are warming up a little bit... The little birds have to be cold in this weather... and so here is a WARM little bird... so happy and singing... 

I have been making some Valentine cards with a dual purpose... or multi purpose reasons...
I want to send them to some friends... I also am going to be putting them into the Just Rite Challenge IF I can get them up there... I have been having a very difficult time getting onto line... and also staying on line... so this is special... when I get on I post a dozen cards for a few weeks... LOL.. so I really have to work ahead of time...

This card... I really had a lot of fun making it... the colors are all so very bright and fun... I picked up this really cute Bo Bunny paper and had to make a few cards using it...If you notice the envelope above... I will talk about that later... Anyway... the little bird.. I drew it, and then added all kinds of fun colored dimensional pearls to her...

What a wonderful saying... To Truly Love someone, we must LAUGH with them... isn't that 100% of the truth... so very true... be relaxed and love those around you...

Okay... the envelope... Do you have way more printed 12 x 12 paper than you will ever use???? Well I did.... and since I was cleaning up the studio, I decided to clean out the paper piles... each of my 12 x 12 papers are color assorted... so I cleaned out a few colors and it became contagious... and finally I had it all done... taking out papers that I will not use... old ones, and ones that are jsut so out of date that how could I ever use them... for a CARD.... but I can use them for an ENVELOPE!!!! So that is what I am doing.. I now have another bin of paper about 18 inches of it... for envelopes... this is one of them... I use a pretty punch to emboss the inside of the envelope... and it is really special...

So two projects done.. and I now have a few more to do and the studio will be getting into a nice area of clean and ready for a full year of playing... and also... I have to add this... more space to buy new things... LOL... main reason for cleaning out...

Thanks for stopping by for a visit... and welcome to all you new gals that have joined... I really love you all... and try to make this as interesting as possible..  There will be more braided cards starting in a few days... I think I made about 12 of them... I love the braiding... so much fun..

Have a fun day... stay dry and warm... and see you all again real soon.. Love, Light and Peace...Bonnie
