Tweet Spring Birthday

The other day I was sitting on our screened-in porch when I heard a clutch of baby birds peeping away. I quietly watched for awhile and noticed the parents bringing food. There are a lot of new babies this spring. Are you one of those who celebrates a birthday in the spring?

I colored this tweet little guy with Copic markers, matching his breast color to the polka dots of the scrap patterned paper. I love Reverse Confetti's The Tweet Life stamps and Confetti Cuts for birthday cards. And for spring! 

Tweet

Hello peeps! Have I told you recently how much I adore spring? It's my favorite season! And one of the things I love about it is waking up to the symphony of bird songs outside my window each morning. It's the best kind of alarm clock! 

Inspired by this daily chorus, I created this Reverse Confetti The Tweet Life card! 

Isn't this little bird the tweetest?!?! 

Speaking of tweet birds...our resident Carolina wrens are nesting outside the kitchen window again. In May we'll have a new clutch! I always look forward to seeing these little sweeties emerge from the nest! 

Isn't this little fledgling the sweetest? Just look at the down sticking out of his head feathers! Good luck little guy! It's a big world out there. Oh the places you'll go! 

April SFYTT

It's April 1st and Reverse Confetti has another awesome Sketch for You to Try (SFYTT)! It would be so fun if you could play along! And who knows, maybe you'll even win an RC gift certificate! For details and more takes on the sketch, click here. 

Since Easter is just days away, I used the More Than Jellybeans and The Tweet Life Confetti to make this Easter chick design. Makes me want to hold a baby chick and eat dark chocolate eggs! Ha!

What will you do with the sketch? 

Mini Easter Basket

A few months ago when I was at the craft store I found this little mini wooden basket. Too cute, isn't it? I knew it would make a cute little Easter decor piece or gift and Reverse Confetti's new Folded Tag is the perfect size for it. I dressed up the tag with one of the little birds from The Tweet Life set and topped that off with the Double Banner Garland. 

 

You can fill your little basket with all sorts of goodies from sweets to a gift card or a little bird nesting inside. Oh...what about using these for place tags at your Easter dinner table? I just might have to go get some more! 

Happy Bee Day

Good Monday to you all! I'd like to share a bee-utiful card I created with Reverse Confetti's latest The Buzz stamps and Confetti Cuts. You may have seen Friday's post where I mentioned that I had the honor of attending Richard Garay's birthday luncheon at the Journey Blooms headquarters in Arizona last week? Well, this is the card I made for him. 

After creating a couple cards with this set for the March release I had the idea to make one with lots more bees, an entire swarm! And I used the branch from The Tweet Life set to hang the hive on. Oh what fun it was to make this card! Bzzzzz
