What was your inspiration?

I created a journal page with a bird on it, and wondered if I could create the bird from the page in a three dimensional form.

What are you most proud of?

I'm very pleased that it turned out looking so much like the bird on the journal page.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

My advice is always to jump in... give it a go, and if you have questions or want more advice, email me.

I love journaling, I love crafting, and I love birds, so this is a perfect "dovetailing" of all three! (pun very much intended!) Brava, do keep 'em coming!

LOL... what a perfect pun! I hope if you try the bird, you definitely let me know... I'd love to see what everyone does with it!
