IFC32: 3/30/09 So Tweet!

[wendella247]

It’s so exciting to be your guest hostess this week! Next week, our beloved IFC hostess, Jennipher (stamptician), will be back with us. [Happy face goes here!]

I don’t know about you, but I’ve always loved birds, and they’re never out of style. They’ve especially been popular for the past year or so in the papercrafting world. I thought it would be fun to use birds on your pages this week—any kind of birds you want—cute, funny, serious--peacocks, songbirds, crows, gulls, the list goes on and on. They can be stickers, stamped images, on designed paper, even in your photos—whatever form you want. Let’s just have fun with birds.


AND… for an extra bit of FUN, I have a PRIZE -- a package of scrappin’ GOODIES that will go to the person who creates the page voted as the favorite by three of my crafty friends from work. The deadline for submissions is 9 p.m. EST on Sunday evening (4/5/09). I’ll announce the winner on Wednesday (4/8/09.)

Let those birdies fly, ladies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please use the keyword IFC32 for all layouts submitted for this challenge. Make sure that you return here and leave a reply with a link to your challenge page when you are finished so that we can leave you some love.
You can find all layouts submitted for this challenge HERE.

Here are three sample pages I made using birds:

Top Knot
Ponce Inlet
Silly Birds

Great challenge! I just used a coupon at M's and bought a paper stack w/ the cutest bird pp. I 'll definitely give this a whirl.
thanks Wendy.

Ooh, I hope you can find something -- if you're like me and still have old Christmas pics to scrap, maybe you can find some doves or something. Hope you can play!

ooOoOooo good point, I know there's a reason I have been saving my Christmas cards from the past 10 years Now to just find them!

[princessp1971]

Well , I guess I will to have to sift through the "ole" stash for some bird stuff! Great challenge thanks Wendy!

[eeddmm]

Same here. I've got so many stamp sets, I'll have to look to see if I've got any birds. A friend of mine left me borrow her entire stash until her divorce is final and she gets her own place and I know there was a set with sea gulls in it. Will have to find it and scrap some beach trips.....

[wendella247]

Glad to know you'll all be digging through you stashes. You might just discover some other goodies hiding at the bottom of a drawer or cabinet! Hope to see some birdies soon!

I really like this one, Peggy. The colors are striking and I love the patterned strip and embellies. Of course, the birdie is great too!

Thanks for playing!
