Well isn’t it cold………..!  No snow here yet but the fire is on full blast and I have several extra layers on!!!

The last few days have been taken up with Kimberley’s 14th Birthday, pictures to follow later in the week but I have a wonderful paper bird to share with you today.

This bird is a replica of the birds on page 89 of the UK 2010-11 Stampin’ Up! Idea Book and Catalogue.

Now I would love to say this was my invention……..or even that I made it but I didn’t !  Believe you me I have tried and failed several times to make one of these…………I know when I am beaten……

The lovely Pauline made this for me, she is part of one of my technique clubs and took the challenge of following the directions shared by Lynn Pratt here

Here is an alternative view and a picture of the amazing tail.

Thank you so much Pauline for making this and then giving it to me, I am a very lucky lady!

So here is a challenge, can you make one of these?  Do send me a picture or a link to your website or blog if you can, it will certainly keep your fingers busy in the cold!

Happy Stampin’
