Bird’s nest gift tags

 

2010 12 13_0020

I adore birds nest’s, and am always on the lookout for them.  We even had one that came in our cut Christmas tree last year.

I search them out when I am walking, and while driving, during winter they are easy to see perched in the bare branches.  There is something inspiring in the fact that such a small creature can create a structure so substantial, and with only a beak.

This bird’s nest stamp is also a favourite of mine, along with the color turquoise.  It seems to be a perfect pairing with it’s chocolate brown ink, and ribbon.

The tiny sparkles in the eggs add a bit of Christmas [or anytime of year] glitz.

I have created a set of gift tags, this one is going to a friend who is equally enamoured of the nest, and the color turquoise.

  8. I have a "thing" for bird nests and turquoise, so I love your tags, Jen! I have a real bird nest in the house along with some pen & ink sketches of nests that I've done. I don't think I could ever tire of them - especially the occupied ones I find while hiking. :)

    Thanks for sending me the CSN code... I haven't ordered the cloche yet, but hope to sooon.

    Happy day to you,
