I didn't identify them at the time. They looked bluebirdish to me and in my research I see there was a bluebird box project at Custer State Park. So probably bluebirds. But who knows. I won't be sending these photos to the Audubon Society. Or National Geo. Thanks for the comments.

I've got to ask...what kind of bird? Swallow or Bluebird? I can't expand it well on my iPad to tell clearly. Looks Bluebirdish.
I agree about bird photos Farley. It is a challenge to get good ones, as they don't sit still for you like flowers do. Or if they're sitting still, they're usually too far away. Jen, you're making me want to go back through my birding photos and scrap some more of them.

I might have to add as a person who has spent more time photographing flowers than birds....if there is the slightest bit of breeze blowing, close up work with flowers is nigh on impossible. Sometimes I just give up and go for the windblown look. I have lots of photos of daffodils swaying in the breeze. Some of my photo friends built or bought little windbreak lightboxes to achieve perfection. But I'm a lazy cheap slug.

I didn't do a scrap layout yet - but I did the one from the ALCM deck :lol:
I'll add sentiments as needed, or not!

Very cool. I love those little squares with the palm trees. What technique did you use?

the starfish is the good ole Tim Holtz "brushless watercolor" - tap several colors of ink on stamp, mist with water stamp.
The brown card I made some Color Burst backgrounds and picked the perfect one to stamp on.
The other is using my Zig Clean Color markers for the sunset!

thanks,

This layout is "based" on that 4 of Diamonds...sort of.

This is something we came across on a walk through downtown Lafayette...in an alley no less.

Made of old instruments.

I used Concrete Jungle from June of 2009, good bye paper stash!

Great mural with the instruments. Good kit to use, too. That was a hard kit for me.

Great layout, Pat. I loved that kit! Worked so well with pictures of my nephew on his bike and skateboard.

Awesome Pat! This kit is perfect for that cool mural.

I did not like Concrete Jungle when I first laid eyes on it. And to make it worse, I was asked to be the guest card maker for that kit. 8-). Definitely was a challenge for me. But in the end, I pretty much used up most of it scrapping an outdoor concert that Charley was in that was held in our downtown shopping plaza that is nothing but concrete.
