STAF WESENBEEK BIRDS & BUTTERFLIES CARD

This is my second post today! I haven't done a double posting before!  Anyway,  I was looking through the cards that I have photographed and thought this was quite a seasonal one to showcase!

The kit I purchased from Ebay.  If I remember correctly there were a set of three cards - different designs, the decoupage, pyrimage sheets and envelopes.  The artwork is by an artist called STAF WESNBEEK.  The kit incorporates decoupage, invertage and pyrimage so I thought this was a great card to do with my class when I was teaching. 

I found out that birds - even on cards were a matter of taste!  I love them anyway!  I gave this card away to my Mother-In-Law for her birthday a couple of years back and she loved it!

I would love to receive your comments!

Supplies Used:

Staff Wesenbeek Birds Decoupage, Invertage & Pyrimage Kit

Hello Bloggers
