I had a Ziploc bag of scraps of paper... my favorite to use for things... and I also had a few pieces of paper that I had inked... so I was in luck... Also a few flowers... HEY... my work table always has a FEW flowers on it... so we were lucky there that there were not a dozen...
So here is what I created...
I took the bag of scrap paper and collage little tiny pieces of it... and made a whole 8.5 X11 inch sheet of paper... LOL.. so I have a lot left over.. not a big deal... I love this kind of thing... so it was fun.... then I pulled out a BIRD Sizzix Die cut... and made the two birds... they didn't have wings on the template??? So I had to make my own... not a problem either...
The rest was all on my work table.. .I just glued it on the paper... oh I should say I sewed the two pieces of paper together and then glued everything onto it...
The raffia had fallen on the floor... from the table... does that count... the birds have stamping on them... and so do the leaves... and also the saying... which I had just put a huge drawer of misc stamps onto my worktable yesterday... so I was in luck there too... some of my favorite ones too...
I did have to get rhinestone eyes... but they were in a container on my table... truthfully they were ... .
So that is my contribution for today...
I really love this one... and think I will hang it next to a bird house... as these birds are really fun...
Hope you have a wonderful day... or had a wonderful Sunday.. .I am still stamping and having fun... have another 6-7 hours to play... yea...
Thanks for stopping by and see you soon...
Love, Light and peace...Bonnie
