There is the best art supply store in Astoria, Oregon called Dots and Doodles. I never make a quick trip in their doors! There is too much cool stuff on their shelves and I always go in the back room where they have a big ladder-type display with Cavallini specialty papers.
I couldn’t leave without this wonderful print! I was immediately inspired to make some greeting cards by cutting up sections of the print. After I made three cards using different sections of the print, I cut out all the birds so I can use them in future projects.
The one sheet produced three greeting cards and now I have 5 birds left over. YAY.
I used some scrapbooking paper and made a washi tape accent with a clip art “hope”. After I scanned the image into my computer I added a heartfelt sentiment which by the way…..is my testimony! All that was left was add my pretty bird with a glue stick.
It was fun dreaming up the sentiment….aren’t the birds so cute?
I love the bright red stamp and postage markings. Paris is definitely on my bucket list and I don’t know if I will ever get there, however I do have a ticket for Heaven. YAY!
I have made these three greeting cards into pdf images for you to :
