A Little Bird Told Me... (Etsy Inspired Challenge #122)

Oh what a 'tweet' little shop we have for you to be inspired by this week! :) Modern bird is a lovely jewelry shop on Etsy that combines beautiful craftsmanship with modern designs. I have admired Laura's work for awhile now and so I was quite excited to create my card for this week!
I immediately went searching through my stash of My Mind's Eye goodies because I knew I had the perfect sentiment tag to represent this shop.

I was inspired by this Love Bird necklace. Don't you just love the shape and design of it?! And I absolutely adore this fun and colorful 'Life is Good' line from My Mind's Eye (Quite Contrary - Jack & Jill collection).

This card was also based off of the current My Mind's Eye card sketch challenge. I just switched it around a bit.




Want to know who are sponsor is this week?! Well, if you like adding felt embellishments to your projects then you are going to LOVE our sponsor this week! KUTZ has tons of felt goodies for all your card making and scrapbooking needs!

To play along in the Etsy Inspired Challenge, simply visit Modern Bird and find an item that inspires you, then create a project of your own based off of that item. Post your creation on your blog or online gallery, then link it up to the Etsy Inspired Blog by Friday @ noon, for your chance to win a great prize!

And for some extra inspiration, be sure to visit these lovely ladies!
Have a wonderful weekend! We are heading to the library today to get lots of new books and I am hoping to find some time to finish up a special album that I have been working on for my aunt.
