F4A28 - Birds of a Feather ...! - 09/03/10
F4A28 – Birds of a Feather …! – 09/03/10
... flock together, right?? I often wonder if there is a secret meeting every year where representatives from ALL crafty companies get together and decide what’s gonna be HOT during the next year?? Seems like they ALL come out with similar ideas/themes at the SAME TIME!! (Think about it … color schemes, images, etc. – remember a couple of years ago when Sock Monkey was pretty much EVERYwhere??? Ya can’t tell me that THAT was a coincidence!!) (Sorry for the late post, just subbing!!)
It seems one of the “in” things THIS year is birds (particularly owls, right??). I mean, they are all over the place!!
Sooooooo…..today’s challenge is to make a card with an aviary theme … birds, bird cages, feathers, nests – whatever you have that will help your card take wings, baby!!
AND there is one other part to this challenge – throw in at least ONE color that is not in YOUR own personal palette … one that you find that you just don’t use very often. See if ya can come up with something to do with it!!
Here are my samples:
Happy Bird Day
Whoooo Loves Ya???

Oh - so much choice for this. Bird stamps and a whole bunch of feathers I have been collecting - some from swans, some from sparrows. I haven't jumped on the cages bandwagon yet, but there's still lots of scope - cool challenge.

I'll have to come back and play a little later. I have a leaky drainpipe in my kitchen. No man, so gotta try to find it and fix it myself. If I have time I will play. I have great bird stamps! Thanks for the challenge Wendy!

Hey Wendy, thanks for jumping in and posting a challenge for us! You're the bestest! ;)
Here is my card using orange (not one of my fav colors) and an owl, which of course is a bird.
Thanks for looking!
Have a great and safe Labor Day weekend. __________________ ~Karen ~ |

This is the second card like this I have made. Yesterday for the One Piece Challenge I made one as a second card and didn't get it uploaded. One of my daughters came by last night, thought it was cute and took it home with her. I liked it as well, so made another one for today's bird challenge!

I love birds...they remind me more of spring, my favorite season. I used elegant eggplant, a color I NEVER reach for, but I realized that I really like it. I also incorporated the sketch challenge for this week in the layout. Here's my card I call LIFE

Wishing you all a good weekend and no storms - or at least no storm damage.
