Bird Crazy Occasions

July 21, 2016 By sue Leave a Comment

It has been a year of occasions and celebrations, so I thought I’d share some of the cards I have made using Tim Holtz’ Bird Crazy stamps. You will have seen in earlier posts how my obsession with these incredibly versatile characters started and some of the different series I have experimented with.

They have been fabulous for making large cards for people at work: using a piece of A4 sized card folded over gives plenty of room for the whole team to sign the card; and for making smaller special occasion cards for friends and family.

This large format card was to celebrate a 40th birthday for a friend at work – signed by the whole team.

One of our team members graduated from his Master’s course and this large format card, signed by the team, was presented at a celebratory lunch.

Then one of my personal favourites: Crazy Birds do Indian Wedding. I had so much fun planning and making this large format card (again signed by the team), and the recipients were very pleased with it too.

Several of my friends and family had milestone birthdays this year, so Crazy Birds to the rescue for making these special occasion cards. These two were for girlfriends celebrating their special day, dressed in glad rags (diamantes and feathers) and with a glass of champagne.
