Wee love birds...

Good evening, dear Blogger friends!  Well, the sun has been shining and at least the roads are clear, but the snow will be with us for quite a while longer, I reckon!  Hope you're all managing to keep warm!
Today I have a card to share using another of the talented Sylvia Zet's freebies...Wee Love Birds...
...I'm still on my First Edition Boho Chic paper pad phase (just love the papers in this pad, especially the orange tones!) and I've teamed it with a soft aqua and touch of green...
...I coloured these sweet little birds with my Promarkers and paper pieced the heart, then doodled with a Quickie glue pen and added some Glamourdust.  Here's the colours for all you Pro-markers :
Blue Grey 1 FM, Cool Grey 3, Tea Rose FM, Vanilla, Sunflower FM
So easy to colour up!  (Little Man wanted me to order him some Flexmarkers after having a go with mine this afternoon, he picked sets 1 & 4 and sets 2 & 3 just happened to drop into my basket at the same time!  Ooops!)  The scalloped circle die is one of my all time faves and is from a Marianne doily die set LR0141...
...The layout is another Mojo Monday sketch (makes card making so easy!)  I decorated the inside to match the front of the card, printing the line image and just covering over the heart with a strip of patterned paper, so that the little birds sit on top...
...I embellished with some Mulberry paper daisies (to keep the card flatter), diamantes, pearls and leaves from the Cheery Lynn leaf border die.  I thought it would make a sweet anniversary card, so added an appropriate sentiment.
That's it from me, thanks for popping over to see me and I hope the sun shines again tomorrow!  Lisa x
