Take a Word "Bird Life"

Birdlife is the theme at TAW this week. Today I went to a paper craft fair and bought a load of new stamps. This was a great opportunity to use them. I made two cards each featuring a bird on them somewhere. The main stamps are from La Blanche, I had never seen these before and I totally fell in love with them. Other stamps used are from a new plate by Paper Artsy.



Finally a little card to fit in an altoid tin made for a swap. The theme was Owls.



Can you tell I love birds??
