Singing Birds

 


I made this for a NZ swap group with the keyword Double.  

The double-sided card is folded in a double gatefold style and edges inked.  The birds are two (double) and the twine is tied in a double bow.

The bird dies are Tim Holtz/Sizzix and are doubled onto black card to stand out, edges inked.  The belly band and cut edge of card has gold metallic pen borders.  A small sentiment is stamped and gold pearl added.  The double-sided card and birds are from a First Edition 12x12 pad.  Little leafy bits added to the fold, and inside is a feather.
