Easter Chick

Good afternoon everyone....well at least the weather has improved. Its a bit warmer than yesterday and drier.

First I would like to say 'Hello' to my new followers....Thank you for joining me on my crafting journey. 

Today I have another card to share.





Sorry about the awful photo....I just couldn't get the light right no matter what I did.

The image is one I've had for years from Penny Black called Spring Joy. I've coloured using Promarkers and the papers are BasicGrey ~ Picadilly.  The flowers are made from various sized punches with a pearl added at the centre.

Going Green!


Good morning everyone.

I hope you all had a lovely weekend. It looks as though its going to be another nice day here, which is good for me as I'm off work now until next Wednesday.
 
Yesterday we had a good day in the garden and managed to clean all the paths, drive and patio and replace all the fencing. Now on to sorting the 70 plus plant pots. Brogan said she will stain all the garden furniture including the arbour in between revision.....that's my girl!

Today I have this month's ATC's to share for Ali's ATC Swap~Stop!. The theme this month was Going Green!



I first thought I would recycle something but then ran out of time and the only thing I could think of was frogs....I had these Penny Black Stickeroos tucked in the drawer so thought I would use them. The paper was from my scraps. I die cut the little dragonflies from green glitter card and added some tiny pearls.


Thank you for stopping by.

Have a lovely day.

The images are from Magnolia and I have paper pieced the bauble. I have coloured using Promarkers and used various embossing folders and punches. I have finished off using Stickles and a few pearls.
