I hand cut the leaves twice and layered them a bit on one
side . I also paper pieced the bird house onto some printed
woodgrain paper. You can see it a bit better in this photo.
This stamp is called Bird House Autumn so I just changed
it up a bit and made it Bird House Spring ! I bought some burlap ribbon from Hobby Lobby and as you can see it die cut very well. My lace is also from Hobby Lobby and I have to say that I love it!
Ok ,the roses and stick pin are from a friend that never lets me say what she gives me. If you can keep a secret I will give you a hint. Shhh... her name starts with a J and she is Ketp!

I love all the musical notes...and those burlap hearts! So creative to add all these elements and change your image from Autumn to Spring. You colored those leaves so well and it looks like you shaded your birdhouse just enough without having to totally go crazy with the copics! My kind of coloring...great job Marybeth!
