The Birds - Part Two

Following on from my Part 1 post I now have made similar cards using the remaining three birds from the Tim Holtz "Bird Crazy" Set using sentiments from Dyan Reaveley's "Laugh Til You Leak" and "Say It How It Is" sets.

Last night I managed to find and order the Sizzix die set to match these stamps so hopefully I'll have them early next week - I bet they'll arrive the day I promised my son & my friend I'd take them on a trip to Glasgow so will have to wait to play with them!

In today's mail was a set of stamps from the Doo-Lally-Pip collection by Lindsay Mason called "If You Want To Get Ahead" which consists of 15 items of head gear, I have added my first attempt at using them in conjunction with the Birds at the bottom of this post.

The Birds - Part One

I've had a set of the Tim Holtz designed Bird Crazy for a wee while now and often stamp  them out and colour them in with my Promarkers just because I can - they do say colouring in is good for unwinding!

Last night I decided that I really needed to do something more with them so had a look through my Dyan Reaveley words stamp sets (I think they work really well with these expressive looking birds) and came up with a few ideas.

I love these weird & wonderful birds, and am already working on some more ideas for using them!
