What a wonderful day! I'm thinking about opportunity, change, growth, intention and celebration today. To share the celebration with you I'm giving away this little bird ornament.
Just post a comment by January 22 and I'll use a random number generator to choose a recipient.
I made it as part of Regina's "birds of change" swap. She invited swappers to give a bird away today. I'll give you a link for a list of other bird give-aways soon. You can also see images of lots of fantastically creative birds on the flickr group.
After playing around with lots of options, I finally settled on this. I'm pleased. Text, surface design, the green and the purple, fusible... lots of my favorite elements. I had to hurry to get this one ready for the give-away and more are in the works for the swap.
I hope you're soaring today. On top of all the other good things about today, I'm turning 39!

Thank you so very much for your thoughtful comments and birthday wishes. I used a random number generator to choose a comment. This little bird will be winging its way to Trinity Lou!

Happy 39th Birthday! I turn 40 on ground hog's day and I'm excited about that! The little birdy is lovely! I love the mixed media aspect of it, very cool!
I was explaining your Small Quilt class to a friend Saturday evening and recalled a photo of a raven I took in New Mexico. I printed the photo with the intention of carving a stamp. Mmm... were you channeling birds while you were teaching on Saturday?
Happy Birthday! I hope you have a super creative day.
Ah, so cute. What a fabulous occasion to celebrate along with your Birthday. I can't even remember when I was 39! LOL...
Have a wonderful day, Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday! I don't know if I'm posting in time but the the bird soaring on inauguration day is perfect. I actually went to the Inauguration and could see the Capital tiny in the distance and watched everything on jumbo-trons. The crowd was fabulous!
