Hi Barbie, I love this collage so much. I just know that man was a total character. What a fun challenge. I will try to be okay along myself. Have a wonderful day and Easter weekend. 📄✂️🌸💕🙌

[@NellieandRuthDesigns]

Thanks so much, my sweet friend. Easter blessings to you as well. Hugs and love to you all. xoxo 🌼🌷🌷🌼

Hi, Barbie! Great collage!! You are so good with surreal collaging. I have loved seeing what other artists have done so far. Everyone's collage is so different but that's what makes it interesting for me. I may try my hand at doing something a bit surreal at some point. TFS xoxo

[@NellieandRuthDesigns]

I am so loving all the bird collages, Joy and I believe everyone is enjoying this little challenge and series. You have been doing a beautiful job and I love showing off your work. Give the surreal a try, I think it's so much fun. I'll be using my 5x7 playing cards for the next few collages. Did you see Pam's over at Tattered Paper and Lace ... I love what she did as well. Have a wonderful weekend my dear, sweet friend. xo 🌷🌼🌷💕💞💕

That shattered hole in the mountain is perfection! What a win finding the extra image of just that very picture. His pointing finger was made for a bird perch. Loving this challenge! Thanks for the link! Hugs 😚

[@NellieandRuthDesigns]

Thanks girlfriend 🥰 I'm so happy you are enjoying it. I won't have mine out this week. I have a video coming out later today....a video I didn't expect to make. I hope to be back at my craft desk next week. 😟😢 xo hugs 🫂

[@NellieandRuthDesigns]

1:28 ...... that's the quickest someone left a comment 🤣🤣🤣 leave it to you, my friend. I'm glad the hole worked out, my original idea went right down the toilet .............. 🤭

[@itearpaper]

Hey Barbie…Cool collage, it’s a mind bender for me 😉 you know I love your surreal collages ❤ Hoping to work on mine tomorrow, Friday - Monday won’t be much crafting time for me. Have a blessed Easter ✝️

[@lindabrown3558]

Love the birdman I love your surreal collages

[@NellieandRuthDesigns]

Thank you very much, Linda. I wonder if he can convince those sweet birds to enter into Bird Island? Blessings to you and your family, this Easter weekend. xo

[@annevancingel8250]

Just brilliant, Barbi. So enjoy following you

Perfect placement of all items. The man looks like he is running, which he obviously doesn't, to bird island.😂 I love this ❤

[@NellieandRuthDesigns]

Hi Barbie, trying to catch up on your videos. This was a great page. I like the bird coming out of the glass in the mountain. Have a blessed Easter switch your family! Hugs

[@NellieandRuthDesigns]

Good evening, Shay. Thanks so much! Sitting here scrapbooking with my Daughter-in-law and just saw your comment. I thought it was cute to have that little bird coming out of the hole and so happy you enjoyed it. Blessings to you and your family this Easter weekend. Hugs right back at ya! xo 🤗💖

[@MerryScraps]

Another fabulous collage!!! i love your solution for the third bird!

[@NellieandRuthDesigns]

Thank you Gina. Blessing to you and your family this Easter weekend. xo 💓

[@tatteredpaperandlace2905]

Fantastic surreal collage Barbie. I kept thinking of Alfred Hitchcock’s “The Birds”. It’s funny when you showed the larger picture of the broken glass I pictured a birds head coming out of that opening looking at the man in that picture. Had know idea you were going to use just the opening…brilliant! TFSGF

[@NellieandRuthDesigns]

Great minds think alike, Pam. xo Love your comment and I agree with all you said ... yes, The Birds ......... great movie. Blessings to you on this Easter weekend and see you after the holiday. xo

[@linmims3049]

I love it! It's funny, and it is also witty when one knows what magazine the man came out of. Given that one has heard the term, "Jail bird". I admire the attention you give to the smallest of details. Really cool page! Hope you and yours have a very blessed, joyful and safe Easter.

[@NellieandRuthDesigns]

Oh, I wish I had thought of 'jail bird' good for you ... that's how I like others to think. Brilliant. xo Detail oriented I am, it drives my family nuts .... Thank you for your wonderful comment, I just love hearing from you and chatting. Blessings to you and your family this Easter weekend. Ours will be quite, but festive fun and lots of love. See ya soon! xo 🥰

[@susangazawaypapercrafting3749]
