Friend Like You Release...Bluebirds of Happiness!

There's a new release over at Simon Says Stamp, Friend Like You!  I have used one of the adorable new die sets from this release, to make a card to share with you, today!...

I'm not sure if you've ever heard of the bluebird of happiness...I have one that belonged to my mom...

Bluebirds represent happiness...I have many bluebirds that come, daily, to my bird feeders and they DO make me so happy! SOOOOO...all that to say that I chose to make my little die cut birds blue.  I had an old box from my favorite perfume, that I had saved and had thought with it's fuzzy texture, would be really cool to use, to make my birds...   

I die cut the birds, used some craft foam behind each bird to give them some heft, and adhered them to the panel.  For the sentiment, I used a sentiment from an Easter set, that I taped off two parts of the sentiment, to make it fit the birds.  Here's a close up,,,

I had such fun making these cuties...happiness!!  There will be two blog hops, tomorrow and Saturday, celebrating this new release...hope you will join in the fun and "hop" along! 

Thank you for visiting me today!! Hugs!! Lisa
