Welcome to the 21st Pile It On Challenge of 2013! Our theme this week is "Put a Bird on It." Include a bird of any kind somewhere on your project.


We're sponsored this week by The Paper Nest:

The Paper Nest is a family owned scrapbooking store in Fort Myers, Florida. In addition to that, we have our own stamp line ( rubber and digital ) called The Paper Nest Dolls. The stamps are all hand-drawn by me and inspired by our children. I have been an artist/illustrator for most of my life....I mean, C'mon, who doesn't want to draw for a living?? Please visit my store and blog.
