For this week's Teapot Tuesday, we are supposed to bring "birds that don't flutter, birds that can sit." (MMTPT160 ~ FLUTTERING FLOYD! ALL YOUR FRIENDS ARE ANNOYED! by Mothermark at Splitcoaststampers)
This bird is from a whole set of bird stamps, and he's the only one who's not flying, just sitting calmly on his branch, so he earned a trip to today's teaparty. (Personally, it's not the fluttering that annoys me, it's the birds that have to pull about 15 seeds out of the bird feeder and let them drop to the ground before they find the one seed they like to eat. But I digress.... and I didn't bring any of those to the party, either)
I went kind of crazy on this one with the punches (corner and border punch) and the swirly background stamp, which is also done in versamark ono the coral strip.)

Ha, yes - when our feeders were over a grass area I was forever pulling up stuff that had grown from the seeds birds had discarded. That's a really pretty image, and the swirly paper is the most perfect background.
