Little bird..

I quite like the less is more type of cards at the moment and as I need cards and want to use my stamps again  I have decided to make more..here is a little bird card that I used some of my fabric scraps on..edged with stitching to just finish it off..be sure to check the fashionable stamping challenge to see more bird cards


My sons loved helping me to make this cake espcially licking the bowl afterwards!


Inspired by the cake decided to make this quick postcard for Sunday Postcard Art..check out the other entries too
Have finished my crochet squares so now just have to join them up and make the edges for the next blanket..love the colours on this one and my blankets are very popular with my sons who love snuggling in them of a morning.

Wow, a lot of artwork here, the Birdie is so cute and the cake looks tasty. Your Grannies are fabulous. Have I forgotten anything?

All of your artwork is fab, Lorraine.

Both of your cards are lovely, and the machine stitching adds a wonderful accent. My favorite is the little Chickadee!

I very much like your first bird card and I too think the mix of stamping and fabric is a great idea and very effective. I also like your Valentine card with the stitching and fabric.

The second card is my absolute favorite, maybe because it is inspired by a cake?! Love the overflow of colors and the two kisses each other ♥
