Birdsong 5 was amazing!
A weekend retreat filled with love, laughter, friendship & Art -
presented by the fabulous Karla Nathan!
I so enjoy participating in the Birdsong swap exchanges.
This year there were four swaps:
Decorated chipboard house,
Fabric Nature book,
Nature Snippet,
Nature mini-canvas & mini matchbox set.
Here are my creations for the swaps
I placed a battery-operated tea light in my house to serve as a nightlight.
My style often leans towards whimsy or shabby, but this house spoke French cottage to me. Although I did tuck a sweet pewter fairy on the stone archway of the door.
My fabric Nature book
My Nature Snippet Roll... instead of a thread spool to wrap my snippet around, I chose a branch to reflect nature.

My mini canvas & mounted mini matchbox set
The mini matchbox was filled with little treasures.
I had taken the above photos of my creations prior to Birdsong 5. Sadly all the photos I took at Birdsong 5 I mistakenly deleted. I was downloading them when I was really too tired to be messing with them. Unfortunately I paid the consequences of pushing my limits...breaks my heart I lost so many photo memories.
Coming soon...photos of the INCREDIBLE swaps I received.
See you soon!
