Stamping collage Bird cards

I love birds on cards, you probably hadn't noticed... :)

Here are some I did a while ago

This bird is from Artistic Outpost and remains one of my favorites all-time. I used different stamps quite randomly.


This is the Robin stamp from Artistic Outpost, love it too. The rest of the stamps are Hero Arts.


I stamped one of the new Hero Arts tag stamps with distress ink just around the sides, leaving the centre open to add different stamps.


 And here is a collage of my own birds, my chickens which I have had since September 2013.  I get three eggs each day and they are so fun to have! Dotty is the bold one, she flies out of the coop at times. Dilly is the greedy one, always snatching away food from the others, but she does give me the biggest eggs! Dally is the elegant one. I really love studying their characters.

  2. All great cards...How wonderful have very fresh eggs...I remember my grandmom collecting the hens from the hens. I was small so I was a bit afraid of them...

  3. Your cards are always gorgeous and these are no exception. I love birds on cards, too and just made three thank you notes using the new bird stamp from HA. Thanks for the inspiration and I can't imagine what eggs as fresh as yours would taste like. My job when I visited my Grandmother "in long ago days" was to help gather the eggs!

  11. Jacqueline, I love stopping by your blog for a little visit. Your cards are always beautiful! I have been wondering where you got those unique bird stamps. Nice collage of your girls. I keep telling DH and son that I want a few chickens, but not allowed in our neighborhood. Blessings, Kym
