I love all the stories that have little blue birds in them.. my mother and father use to play this game with putting a piece of tissue on a finger nail and they would say this poem about the little blue bird flying away... and they would change the finger .. and as a child, I would think the little bird had flown away.. .but the second half of the poem would bring the blue bird back again... by again bringing the first finger back out... and you would see the tissue on the finger nail... Illusion ... so I made these little birds birds by using a resist on glossy and then inking over with a brayer.... I used blue pearls for the berry accents... and the border is made with Marthas new bird and twig punches... the corners are also another new punch... but for the life of me can't remember the names of all of these.. just a really pretty one... too many new ones... I spoiled myself...
A large navy bow and finished... my bling are the pearls... limited, but that was all I could put on here... this is going to a person who is rather on the calm side...
Thanks for looking... and also for the comments... love them all..
Love, Light and Peace...Bonnie

Gorgeous!! Your sheer bow adds just the right touch! Don't you wish the names of the punches were on them somewhere?? I sure do!!
