Beulah The Bluebird has opened another B and B here in Beautiful Sonoma County Ca. It will be managed by Swirley, Beulah's cousin.
Now were known for our wineries here,
but you can find a good beer,
with cheese and french bread
you can really spread the good cheer.
Just don't go a flying while intoxicated
or our chippies will have you by the ear.
They put up check points,
so be aware,
just stay at the B and B
and do all your partying there.
This not so little B and B has room for a crowd, so Beulah's sending her peeps in the area to The Sweet Life. There will be lots of local wine and beer, with cheese and french bread. No tea at this party.
Swirley will be the hostess.
The body of this birdhouse is actual wood paper and the top is woodgrained c/s. Both are cut with nesties. The fancy scroll work on the roof is from the Parisian Motifs set, with the gingerbread is from a MS punch. The vines are from the SU 2 Step Bird punch, while the flowers are from a Michaels dollar punch. The swirly bird is stamped and embossed with 3 layers of ep.
Since I didn't have any sentiment stamps to go with this, I used my own handwriting to make the title of this card.
I will be participating in the Destination Station, so how ever that is supposed to work, I'll send the card to that person. Just send me a PM with your address and I'll get the card out to you.

Swirley is certainly a sweet looking bird. I had a feeling it had to be real wood for the birdhouse - what a lovely touch that is. The ornate roof is great, too.
Can I have wine, not beer, please .
