Birds in the snow




Hello lovelies,

The theme this week at City Crafter is

Snow bird
Make a card or project and include a bird AND snow.

Sweet Ros chose this beautiful theme.
Thank you dear, I love birds!




1) is a card I made for my 6 year old. We love exchanging "mail" :)
The little "stars" are supposed to be snow.
It's fabric and embroidery on watercolour paper
plus some lace, beads (on the lace) and some hand drawing.




2+3) is a matchbox I decorated, and together with...

4) which is a bird ornament, they were part of a swap I made for Diana.




Recycled and "junk" bits:

* matchbox
* old buttons
* leftover scraps of fabric
* leftover scraps of lace


Guest designer this week is the super talented Ana K.
I really love her vintage style!


Happy crafting!

xx Wen

  13. Wat geweldig dat jullie elkaar allerlei dingetjes 'sturen'! Dat deed ik met mijn moeder vroeger ook (tot op latere leeftijd zelfs) en dat neemt tot op de dag van vandaag een speciaal plekje in mijn hart in. Je luciferdoosje en vogeltjeskaart/ornament zien er zooooo mooi uit, super gemaakt meis! Liefs, Ira x
