Hummingbird Watch


I have thoroughly enjoyed watching all the sweet hummingbirds this year, and when I thought about adding them to the grandkids' scrapbook, I thought of this image from Tim Holtz Crazy Birds set.


Doesn't he remind you of this little guy standing guard over this feeder?


Then one day I spotted a visitor, he must have been thinking of building a nest under the eaves.


At one point we counted as many as twelve hummingbirds between the two feeders. It's funny how some of them were very accommodating, and others were quite aggressive, chasing the others away.

The album for the grandkids is 8 x 8, and has pocket pages to fit 4 x 4 photos.

I was inspired by the challenge at Frilly and Funkie: All Creatures Great and Small. He's a tiny bit Funkie, don't you think?
Thanks for stopping by!

Happy 30th Birthday


A couple of challenges for this birthday card for my daughter-in-law.  Her birthday is October 1st and she enjoys Halloween themed cards.  The first challenge is Frilly and Funkie: All Creatures Great and Small.

I used the crow from Tim Holtz Mini Blueprints.


The second challenge is Simon Says: Use More Than One Stencil.


I used the stencil letter dies from Tim Holtz Gift Card Bag, love the hashtag die, and she will be 30 and uses Instagram!  The second stencil is from Tim Holtz Mini Stencil 3 for the brick, with Texture Paste and Distress Ink.
