Tropical Birds F4A127

Photo Details

Poster: Crafts

This is my second card for the Seeing Double challenge, with two birds and two postage stamps. This is as close as I get to duplicating one of my cards. My sister can mass produce cards like a pro, but I only manage to make them one at a time. The first card in this gift set is here: Tropical Travelogue IC346 by Crafts.

Judi, this is terrific!...what a gift set!! I'm especially fond of this bird one since I have dear friends who are world-wide birders and have taught be a lot(but not enough to identify the species of yours). I love how your card looks like it might be an elaborate page from a naturalist's field notebook. The bg viney DP is perfect as are the stamps that might be of the country wherwe this bird lives.

This is very cool..I love the deep, rich leafy bg. Those birds look right at home here and the faux postage and little "well done" tab are great little additions to a lovely card.
