Little Red Bird

I felt like doing a little paper crafting yesterday. I had nothing particular in mind just felt like doing something other than painting! I opened the cabinet to see what jumped out at me. I always feel this way when I open the door, there is so much in there that something is bound to hit me on the head one day. I found a unpainted wooden picture frame and my new favorite book of papers.

Another bird, imagine that? I think they are so whimsical and basically they are easy for me to draw and then cut out. I do what I can with what I have!


I really do think it is great to dream. Dream big! Dream small!


Flowers, I wanted to keep these colors very subtle. This little frame is all about the pretty red bird. I love using buttons for the centers. Someday, I am going to sit in front of the TV and thread all the buttons I own. Again, a little detail that for some reason I just hate to do. But, I like how it looks, so I do it! Sort of like dusting the furniture!

I have an unfinished picture frame that I have been waiting for inspiration to hit before I decorate it. I love the dream sentiment. I might have to copy you!

The green is perfect for spring. Buttons add that cuteness. You're always so creative!
