In like a lion out like a lamb

In Like a Lion, Out like a Lamb. We've all heard the expression.
I'm not a fan of that lion. It was way too cold. Bring on the lamb!!! While we're all waiting for warmer weather, I hope you'll join us this week for the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. The theme is "In Like a Lion, Out like a Lamb", but you can use any animal for inspiration.
This week, I repurposed a tart tin. With a bit of paint and glitter magic, I now have a new Spring fridge magnet with a watercolored bird. Yes, I've used this bird a million times...I know I should retire him, but he keeps giving me the "eye".
Link your project to the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog and your project could win a $50 gift voucher to Simon Says Stamp.  We draw a new winner each week. Your project could also be chosen to be featured in our weekly designer spotlight.

    Such a great idea Michelle and I love your bird. That is one of my favourite stamps too (it will appear in another project of mine quite soon). I have no plans to retire this cute bird stamp!

    What a great use of a tart tin! Love how your little birdie now has a "nest" of fabulousness! And hey- you make this bird look so great that I see no need to retire him anytime soon! I love the celebratory feel of this piece and your work always makes me smile.
