Just Us Girls Challenge #248 Word Week BIRD

Just Us Girls is shaking it up a bit.  Instead of the sketch challenge, it will be a WORD challenge.  This week the word is BIRD.  Wow, all of the fun things you can do with that.  Be it funny or just beautiful.  I was in a funny mood, so I remembered an old stamp set and  new one and could not decide which one to use, so........ I did both. 
Here is the first one. 
For this one, I used GKD Sweet Corn for the base and Shabby Spring DP.  The bird images are from Tiddly Inks, For the Birds.  I colored them on watercolor paper with distress markers and made them blush.  I hope they look like birds to you, they could be mistaken for apricots.  Ha ha!
The border die is MB and called Modern Landscape.  I added Polkadot ribbon, and a sentiment that I printed on my computer that would fit this card.  Now that I look at the card, the birds look like they are floating.  I may go back and fix that. 
I will need to post the other entry separately, so I hope you are anxiously awaiting for that.  Lol
Thanks so much for your comments, I do love my craft, it keeps me out of trouble. Except when I am shopping for new stuff.
