Thought I would start with something simple and then decided to add a fluffy cloud. I made this card for a swap which went to Australia so have had to wait to show until I knew that it had been received. The swap was to make a card and add something with wings.
Shaped card blank with matching Xcut nestie turned on its end.
Background coloured with pastel pearlescent chalks.
Quilled strips and googly eye.
Britannia word dies.
Close up of Flamingo.

Valery, you are channeling me in So. Fla. (Land of the pink flamingos!). This is so cute. Great job on your foray into quilling. I've got some supplies, but never tried anything 'for real' as yet. Your pink bird is delightful and I loved the background for him. Looks like what I'm seeing all around the area where we're visiting! TFS & thanks for the joy fold link too - appreciate it. Hugs
Oh how cute your pink flamingo is! I tried quilling and made a mess of it. Yours looks wonderful. Creative Bliss Dear...

I've never seen a quilled flamingo but I LOVE it! And that sweet cloud is beautiful with all it's swirls!
Oooer Mrs A - this is really terrific. That there flamingo has such a cheeky look as he's running along - very clever make indeed!
Off to bed here - for once am really tired out. Must have been the delights of going into town, I hate normal shopping!
