Woodpecker A Little birdie Told Me Card

Created this card using a Floppy Latte's Digital Designs digi, Woodpecker, I selected for team & I for One Stitch At A Time DT Challenge #178 Anything Goes.

My fav animals are Pandas, Cheetahs, dogs & Birds. I like listening, watching & photographing birds. I enjoyed watching & photographing a nest of Robins in a Mini Magnolia Tree in my backyard near my bedroom window. Saw & photographed the 3 eggs, eggs hatch, eyes not open, eyes open, being fed by Parent Robins, photographed 1st one that flew out of nest and next day photographed the other 2 that flew out of the nest. You can see some of the Robin photos below.

Colored digi with Crayola pencil colors. Used Spellbinder Nest Classic Diamonds dies. Used the Paper Studio Birdwatcher Beauties scrapbook paper. Used Paper Trey Ink Birds of a Feather sentiment. Used Spellbinder Shape Floral Flourishes.

Have seen & heard a Red-Headed Woodpecker in a tree in our front yard and have seen & heard one in neighbor's tree in their backyard.

  2. Looks as though you've created an aviary of wild birds - a Twitcher's delight. Clever how you used the backing paper that is so like your digi, but have succeeded in keeping your image so much in the forefront of your card. Ingrid xx
