What a great challenge! When I was very young, I started saving quotes that I liked. I kept them in a large binder. Then after I moved to CA, my mother sent all four of us kids a note saying if we wanted anything in the attic to let her know. Of course, none of us responded so she threw everything out! Among my favorite things was my quote book ! So for the last 12 years I have been collecting quotes once again. The one on this card is among my very favorites! And I also love birds ever since my ornithology class in college. We also have a wonderful feeder in our back yard, and the birds are all very happy to see food especially when it is so cold....thanks again for both challenges. This afternoon I have many more quotes to type up and put in my binder.

How sad to lose your book of quotes. But glad to hear you will be filling one up again. This bird is so sweet! I love it with the quote you used today! Also the little heart he's holding by the string.

Sorry you lost your original book of quotes. I am sure that they are still in your memory somewhere and that you will enjoy making your new collection. I love how your background looks. I like how you have the little heart hanging by the twine from his beak. With all the cold winter blues, we could always use a little sunshine. Thanks for playing along with my challenge. I hope you have a blessed day. Since you are collecting quotes, I'll share one of my favorites with you.

This really speaks to me! I love birds and have always liked that particular quote. I love the soft, mottled look your bird and background have with the addition of water to your ink. Into my faves!

Fun bird and scene here! Love the sky and that awesome sentiment. I should start a quote book too as I love them. Fun!
