Your card is so beautiful! Love the colours, the texture and the details are just wonderful. Then you knock me down completely by using these fabulous new stamps to create three dimensional home decor items which are just lush and beautiful and everything in between! Thank you for the blog hop, for sharing your art and for the step by steps too I really appreciate it. I will be hunting through my stamps this weekend to see if I can use any of my stamps to create 3D ornaments - thank you for that. I hope you have a fab weekend Karen

The hanging birds are amazing.
These would make great presents for friends and family.
Such a beautiful idea and the fact they are hand-made
makes them more special.
thanks for sharing the details on making them.
