Day 7:  Is Happiness In A Cup 


I've had the crazy birds for quite some time but just didn't know what to do with them...but I told myself you have to use this for the Coffee BlogHop. I stamped, colored and fussy-cut Crazy Bird; but threw it in my stash and didn't pick it up again until I completed two other cards.  It's late this even; but I was determined this was my next card.  

I did the fancy die-cut on my design paper because I saw how pretty it was on one of the other Coffee BlogHop Cards #569 (click here).  

Crazy Bird needed a summer hat and since she appeared to be looking up I thought maybe I should make her a birdhouse...so off to Cricut Design Space.  I needed a pole or tree to set the birdhouse on...brainstorm, why not a stack of cups.  And the sentiment seemed just right.  After I got all my pieces I planned it out on the card and then adhered everything with 3D Thin and Regular Foam Tape.

Well, finally got near the end of the commenting, that is until I do another re-load or re-fresh. I really had to give it a lot of thought on how I was going to present Crazy Bird, but I finally figured it out. Hope you all enjoy. Now back to re-load before I create my afternoon/evening card.

I love birdhouses so much and to have one set on top of stacked teacups... Perfect! And on my favourite paper yet! This is adorable. The bird gazing at the birdhouse, looking for perfection in a cup of coffee or tea - terrific card, Sue!
