Dr. Phil Sitstill would be proud of this bluebird -- not a flutterer, to be sure! He has lots of blue ribbons and lots of heart (er, hearts). He is lacking a few flowers, so hopefully the rest of the 42,000 birds will have some flowers. He did bring his own music though! The teaparty will be very melodious this week. Check it out -- you don't need an invitation.
Our cards are going to Marblehead, MA, this week to cheer up Barbara, a friend of Missro (Robin), a fellow teapotter, who is battling cancer.

Now THAT is what I wanted my birdcage to look like! Oh my! What coolness...is that a word, it is now! Snort! I love this Lois, love the way you did the hearts at the bottom, so the teapot! This is very nicely done and don't worry about the flowers, if the 42,000 don't show up, we'll go find you some in Barbara's yard! If we pick them for her, she won't mind that we picked them! This card rocks, I can hear the music!

Awwww what a sweet birdcage! I love all of the gorgeous detail that you gave it and the sponging of your bird is just perfect. Very cool choice of BG paper too...wonderful card, Lois!

I love the hearts connected to the bottom and the wing out of the cage! Great job!

Didn't you find a great way to add hearts, Lois - what a pretty bird cage. I love birds anyway, but birds and music are a winning combination every time.
