Charming Lovebirds Greeting Cards

Lovebirds greeting cards are ideal for Valentines cards or just a note to say ‘I Love You’.

These love birds are so lovable that I’m sure they are a joy to receive.

Get inspiration from these handmade cards below. Use any images of birds, color them with watercolors, markers or colored pencils. Cut out the images and decorate your cards with them. Make them as personal as you want them to be.

Have fun!

 

There are altogether four of these love birds cards made but I will put two of them here and the other two in another site page.
