two little ducks.....

Hello everyone, thanks for stopping by.

We had two little visitors this morning

can you see next door's cat walk nonchalantly off in the background ?

(top left, white and black).

Mum n Dad stood for a little while, allowing me to get a bit closer

then they started waddling off

until they decided I'd got too close, and flew away!

Was nice to have them visit though.

I sometimes have a pair visit around my birthday in March,

so could it be the weather's been a bit cold?!

I'll be back soon with a card!

Play Day brushos

This was a fave make at a play day.

Brushos sprinkled and spritzed with water,

then overstamped with a simple black image of foliage

left blank for now, might add a sentiment

if I can bear to part with it :)

Hello there, I hope you are enjoying bank holiday Monday.

The sun is shining, and all in the garden is pink.

Here's a cute card pretty in pink designed by Liz

Lots of lush ribbon and gems on this one,

and don't you just love those swirls?!

Enjoy your day whatever you do

Birdcage swap

I am really out-of-sync with my blog posts,

they are definitely not in chronological order!

However, I hope you enjoy them just the same.

Here's a lovely swap I received from Liz,

visit her blog HERE

I really love it with the musical background,

and cage embossed in silver and gold,

but I really want to open it to let him fly away!

I also wasn't happy when Brian the Robot was captured and trashed,

so I already know how sad I am, and need to get out more!

Have a wonderful weekend

Carte Postale de Paris

Had a play with brushos recently,

then had a choice of stamps,

chose this lovely one,

collage style.

Was going to colour in the flower. but I'd stamped it too faintly,

and didn't have the confidence,

so added a sentiment instead

It covered the section I wasn't so happy with.

Layered it onto a square card,

which I haven't done much of lately.

Truly enjoyed making this :)

Have a great weekend
