{birthday bird}


Made this cute little birdy for my SIL one of my favorite cards. I bought a pre-printed card but I like to spruce them up a little. Looking back, I would have sewn the ribbon directly to the card, I just stitched it with a long stitch onmy sewing maching to rouch it and then sewed it on to the card at the ends. Cut the felt out to the appropriate shape. Sewed a french knot for the eye. and sewed on the button. Quick and relatively easy
