Enjoying The Birds
Enjoying The Birds

As life slows down, I have been spending more time watching the birds that come to visit at my feeders. As I write this, I can say today was definitely Woodpecker day at the feeder. I had both Hairy and Downy Woodpeckers come to visit. We have seen Pileated Woodpeckers in the trees behind the house, but they are too big to eat at my feeder!!

My Birdies Are Back
My Birdies Are Back

A huge flock of Canadian Geese flew over my house honking the whole time. It was so loud you couldn’t help but notice how many there were. It must be almost spring!! Another sign, and one that I prefer, is that all sorts of birds have returned from their winter down south and are coming to my feeder.

Hello Birdies
Hello Birdies

One of the most popular suites in the Stampin’ Up! Annual catalogue is the Bird Ballad Suite. The stamp set Free As A Bird has wonderful sentiments along with lovely line images perfect for colouring. If it isn’t a colouring kind of day though, you could just use the line image for a card, or you could get some coloured birds from the pretty Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper, as I have done!

Simple Stamping and My Dilema
Simple Stamping and My Dilema

The Stampin’ Up! #simplestamping challenge this month is a Thank You card. How perfect is that? Since we just celebrated Thanksgiving in Canada, being thankful is on our minds, so making a card to share with someone seems like the right thing to do. Simple stamping is a great way to create a beautiful card quickly, and an opportuntiy to create some pretty Designer Paper for the background, as I did for this card.
