End of Summer Love Birds

Good Sunday morning.  I’m getting ready to dive headfirst into new fall and Christmas dies so thought I would make a sweet summery love bird scene project to celebrate the holiday weekend.  Labor Day mentally seems to be the close of summer for most of us. Although we continue to have very high temperatures here in Florida for a dozen or so weeks.

This really is a fairly fast and easy card to make.  I like the delicate and decorative white frame made using the Claudette Frame to highlight the Love Birds.  I layered the framed scene over a pretty embossed background made using the Flower Embossing Folder Set to add another touch of dimension.

I popped  both the frame and embossed layer up with mounting tape.  I cut the bird and branch out in green and then cut the birds out in blue and hearts in pink.  I cut the green birds off and attached the blue birds to the branch with glossy accents.  I attached the birds to the frame with mounting tape and added a thin strip to the center of the branch to secure so it wouldn’t sag. I popped the little love bird hearts to the frame with rolled glue dots. I can hear the sweet love music.  Can you?

  4. Yes, I can hear the beautiful song being sung by the LOVE birds! They are probably singing because they are in a beautiful scene. TFS. Happy September!
