A share of a baby card I have made today .. .. one of my favourite types of card to make (I have probably told you that before LOL!!!).
Whenever I make new baby cards I can always smell the delicate whiff of baby powder .. .. love that smell!!!

I thought I was going to have an extra little piece of wildlife on the photograph today. This little bird was sitting on the ledge of my bay window peeping in at what I was doing.
With feathers all fluffy it sat there chirping away for ages. I think it was not long from the nest which is in a conifer hedge between ourselves and next door. We have seen the Mummy bird taking yukky goodies into the hedge for a while now.
The ledge sitter was calling for Mum who was hopping around on the ground and jumping up on my car to be nearer. She was chirping back in response.
I tried to get a photograph but it isn't that good as I had to take it through the glass (and my windows could probably do with a clean LOL!!!).
Not long after the baby bird flew in rather a clumsy fashion to a little fence not far away .. .. .. what a feeling that must be .. .. .. flying for the first time.
I used to be able to fly in my dreams .. .. but haven't done that for ages now!! I wonder what that means?!?!?
Catch you all again tomorrow folks. The weather forecast for the weekend sounds good so let's hope we are in for a treat. Hubby can then paint the fence panels .. .. and I can hopefully keep well out of his way LOL!!!
Thank you for calling by my little part of blogland.
Love Jules xx

love your super cute baby card, the birdie is so sweet but I have a real fear of birds, don't no why ,so I would be fleeing from the craftroom. janex
ReplyDeleteThis is stunning, i love the image and the colours that you have chosen, big hugs pops x
ReplyDeleteaww at the bird, and my camera is my mobile phone honey, i have a old sony ericsson w810i hope that helps x
I used to fly in my dreams too but haven't for ages. Must be because I need setting free again. We've also had extra wildlife to enjoy this past couple of days. Yesterday a baby woodpecker flew into the kitchen window but it recovered after I put it up on a hedge. He's still around today with his 2 other siblings as are a family of blue tits - all feeding right outside the kitchen window.
ReplyDeleteLove this baby card - I think gingham always does the job and this is such a pretty shade of yellow.

Hi Jules,
ReplyDeleteCute card. Love how the 4 seperate bears hold the letters to spell BABY.
Love Kerry xxx
Lovely card ... I think gingham always works well on baby cards and yellow is one of my favourites. Thanks for your visit to my blog and the nice comments you left. The image you liked is available as part of a Papermania clear stamp set called 'Party Animal', it's one of three sets in the 'It's a Man's World' range.

We have had a lot of baby birds in our garden, so cute aren't they. Love the baby card, babies and gingham just seem to go together.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend Jules and I hope the weather's nice for your hubby to paint the fence and then you can craft.
Happy crafting

What a cutie! Warmest wishes, Lesley
ReplyDeleteAah this is so sweet Jules, lovely card, sweet little feathery friend you have there too.
