Love and Baby Tags

A quick and easy project for you.
You know those little word cards we all love?
Here is an easy way to jazz them up a bit.

Just take your card, add a bit of lace, and trim,
dry brush around the edges, and, sweetness!
Below is another idea: a bit of music paper
background, corner trim, baby picutre and a bow.
These are very simple, but you could jazz them up more, too.

Oh, you say you do not have any of those little cards?
Have no tears, you can still do it!!
I went to Microsoft word. (you can use any program you can type into)
Type out the word you want, in the font you want.
Lay out several on a page, and print them off!
Wah lah!! Lots of sweet cards to play with!
(this is a copy of a layout sample to give an idea of what I mean)
I tried my hand at scanning but could not figure it out.

And here are some new nests.
I found some great material on my walk a few days ago.
On the streets where there are huge maple leaves,
and cars have run over them, and it has rained,
over and over and over again,
the leaves get all mushed and stringy.
Perfect bird nest material.

I think these are my most real looking nests ever!




I'm planning to sell these just as they are,
for others to fluff up and put in their
favorite unique piece to display them.

Blessings and a Happy week to all!
