love the birds, hate the photos

it's the sad story of my papercrafting life: the cooler & more unusual of a project i make, generally speaking, the harder time i have trying to photograph it! and anything 3-D (seemingly... for me...) is just totally impossible! so if you'll all just write in with your addresses, i will be happy to come round to your homes and SHOW YOU this cute set of "lovebirds" in person, ok? :)



failing that, i suppose you could just hop over to the pixie blog, where the (low) quality of my photos is inversly proportionate to the (high) quantity of them!

but i cannot help going slightly overboard...or in this case overBIRD* when all of the ingredients used to make 'em came from the january pixie dust kit, MY FUNKY VALENTINE!


and they really are the cuuuuuutest little birds, honestly! ♥♥♥

*ok, sorry...worst pun EVER...but it put the photos into proportion, now didn't it, lol??!?!)

  3. Okay, so you have my address already, does that count? You can bring your birds and bird cage and see my new craft room! Well, since that "s" word has made getting around a little inconvenient, you could see pics of my new craft room on my blog (posted yesterday before my Jingle Belles ornament card).

    This turned out beautifully, and I actually don't think you went overBIRD at all (though overboard in a completely Laureny way is a good thing!) I actually think you mastered simply elegant, my dear :)

  11. These are gorgeous. Can't wait to see them in person.
    (We don't have any snow or ice right now, so it's a good time to come to VB.)
