Wed. Oct 12 - Big Bird

Post by Amy Jo »

Image


Join us as we flock together to complete this month's "Birds of a Feather" themed challenges. While this old proverb is true of all of us who share the same love for putting our memories on scrapbook pages or creating beautiful cards, the focus is not on us, but on the various birds that surround us with their beautiful colors, their varied songs, and their nest building skills. They may hang around our yards splashing in a bird bath and enjoying a free meal or they may make their home in a zoo. Perhaps they were a once in a lifetime sighting or a pet you enjoy every day. Big or small, they may frighten us or delight us. We use their names to describe others...you wise old owl, she's as colorful as a peacock, he's just a little songbird. They have stared in movies and inspired songs and poetry. And these amazing creatures have even risen to the heights of being honored as state and national symbols. So, get ready!! The birds are coming!

Remember - A new Blue Plate Special challenge is posted each Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday, and participants have until the 3rd of the following month to complete and post their creations.

Prize will be a $20 Gift Certificate to their favorite online store (random drawing).....

Today’s bird is Big Bird!

A beloved muppet designed by Jim Henson, Big Bird has been entertaining on Sesame Street since 1969. At 8 feet 2 inches tall, it’s no wonder they call him BIG Bird.

Your challenge is to include something big on your page. In my example, I went with a big layout (double page layout) and a big amount of photos (9!), but you could use a big title, a big photo (larger than 4x6”), a big journaling block, or a big cutfile. So many options! Also, just like big bird has a touch of pink on his legs, please include a hint of pink in your layout!

Nice work Ural! I love the title and how the bear die cut is used as a base for the business card. The pink pop looks looks great with green!
