Birds of a Feather

 The lady that started our cardmaking group has retired and has made a big move to a new area, she is feeling so many conflicting feelings about it all, so for her birthday card I sent her this card that reminds her that our group hasn't changed and we will be here for her as she makes this transition.


  • Graphic 45 - Bird Watcher 8 x8 paper pack and Ephemera Assortment
  • Spellbinders - A2 Distressed Edges dies
  • Sassafras - Apple Jack paper (yellow piece)
  • Distress stickles - Scattered Straw (around the swirl piece)


Thanks for taking the time to stop by today, I hope you all have a great week ahead!

    This is absolutely gorgeous, Connie! Your choices for layering and arranging are beautifully balanced. The paper is amazing. You know how I love anything with birds. I would think a move like hers would be difficult if she'd been settled in one place for many years. I would not want to contemplate it. I hope she adjusts comfortably before too long.
