I hope you have all had a lovely sunny Wednesday?!?!?
It was glorious here. Good enough to be summer. The only down side being I have now made a rather large pile of ironing!! LOL!!!
I have also been clearing up my craft pod and challenged myself to make a card using bits that were lying around my desk .. .. making it perfect for taking over to the Pixie's Snippets Playground where we are encouraged to use up our "leftovers".
So here is what I made. Even the ribbon was an offcut!!
This used
Image: Digistamp Boutique "A4 Quick Print colour sheet - Birds"
Backing Papers: A mish mash of snippets
Nestabilites: Classic Circle and Scalloped Circle
Josy Rose: Nail Heads
Ribbon, Twine and Charm
My Trusty Sewing Machine
Plus Sketch Number Six from my Sketch Library .. .. which you can find here ... or on the Sketches tab at the top of my blog. (Please feel free to use any of my sketches if you fancy having a play with them).
and that is me for today.
It has been another few days that have flown by in the blink of an eye .. .. .. and thankfully Mum is still continuing to improve. We are getting there slowly.
Enjoy what is left of the evening.
Oh, this is absolutely lovely ! And made with leftovers, super ! The colours are gorgeous, and so is the image. Thank you so much for your comment on my blog, I know that you are busy. All the best, especially for your mother. Enny
ReplyDeleteGreat choice of colours and a super sketch and a really lovely image.
ReplyDeleteThe sun was a very nice change but would have been better with out the breeze which was quite strong at times, especially when I came out of the hairdressers !!!??? Typical.
