A Card for My Sister

When I made my Mom a card for Mothers' Day, my sister (the one that I am going to visit on Monday) said she would like to have one. I knew I wanted to do a bird again - in fact I decided to do a Mama bird and a baby bird, but this time I used a "found" poem for the inside and then drew the birds based on that.

Here is the inside:



And here is the front with the birds trying for balance:




I sure hope she likes it.

Bye!

  1. I am sure she will like it. It seams that, to me anyway, a hand made card is always more enjoyable than a bought one. Perhaps it is because the giver spent a bit more time thinking about what to make and then a bit more time to make it. I like your take on the balance of nature very cute and a very nice design. Great job!

  2. That's great! Isn't it nice to be able to give hand painted cards? I have just finished a 'card' for my grandson, who will be five in July. I can't post it yet as his sister looks at my blog and may not be able to resist telling him!
