A little birdie told me...

 

I had such fun making this card. I loved cutting out the bird and assembling it. I inked all the different parts first, of course.

The sentiment was printed with my computer, die-cut and popped up on dimensionals. The bird is also popped up so that it can properly sit on top of the sentiment panel.

The corner die-cut was made with an old die--I've had it for years--and you can apply ink through the openings in the die, which you can see I have done.

I think the bird is supposed to be a chickadee--one of my favorite birds. I ink-blended it to look somewhat like the chickadees we have around here.

I found a free image of a grumpy cat online and added one of them to the inside of my card.

I have made several cards similar to this one in the past, and I always hope they bring a smile to the recipient's face.

Do you enjoy making "funny" cards? I know that Riley & Company  has a lot of funny sentiments and images. I've been very tempted to buy some of their products, but I've resisted so far. I'm not sure I can hold out much longer, though!

Finally, here is a photo of the waterfall that is just blocks from our home. It is really roaring after all the rain we've had. Some years it has dried to a trickle, so it's a treat to see it so robust. We could feel the spray from the high ground where we took the picture.

Thanks so much for stopping by, and remember to laugh--a little or a lot--every day.
