Our guest sponsor this month is Sparkle N Sprinkle. I used the very fun digital stamp, Wilson Birds to create this:
I printed the Wilson Birds digital stamp on Kraft paper, then colored the mirrored image with Faber-Castell colored pencils. The sentiment, also part of the Wilson Birds set, is SO darn cute!
I chose this stamp set, and this particular theme because, after perusing my husband's bookshelf, I found 11(!) bird books. He and I are what you could refer to as diehard "birders". We even have our own life lists of birds we've seen and identified.
I hope you can join us this month for our optional "surround yourself with literature" theme. Tell us how your project connects to the theme in your post -- maybe it's a particular book that speaks to you, a poem, or a quote. Our challenge will go until Nov 5.
Julie, this is so funny - those are great birds. Love those dies. Wish you lived just a little bit closer so we could get together to share supplies, hehehe.
ReplyDeleteLove those papers and colors! My grandparents had birds when my dad was little. I remember them going to state parks and conservation areas to see birds. They had a beautiful bird bath outside their business. My dad inherited their love of birds and built the most amazing bird feeder "with one hand tied behind his back" . hahaha Actually, he had a stroke and made it with only his left hand! He is in a nursing home now and has a bird feeder outside his window. Birds are a great connection to nature for him now.
