Birds and a Special Wish

Here is my Atc for this month at the Stamp Man, the theme is birds. I was so happy to find out My atc was chosen as the winner for last month's theme Wise Words, this means I get to choose the theme for July, I better start thinking of it! Secondly here is the birthday card I made for Margaret I just love the poppy's in the corner of the paper (sorry about the pic Realised it is a bit blurry after I had uploaded it and couldn't take another as the card is now in Margaret's hands) I hope you had a lovely birthday Margaret I enjoyed the quick drink, it was lovely to see you sorry I couldn't get to you a bit earlier.

Another picture of the card from a different angle.

I am going to dash now as I am in the mood for crafting and have the house to myself!

I hope you like them?

Catch Up

I have made this tag for January..... Still playing catch up. I was asked if I would like to join the fun as Paulien is making a tag a month, you should pop over and have a look at them they are all stunning and Pauloen is also doing tutorials on her tags using some fantastic ideas.




For the bacground I smeared gesso on the tag, and used distress inks and pearl shimmer mist (milled lavender, Bundled sage and Dusty concord) yes.... that is one of the flowers I have crocheted :)

I hope you like it ?

Crocheted Flowers

Ok, so I have been trying to learn how to crochet for a while now, well about 5 weeks!



My friend Anita has been making scrummy flowers for me and Tracey :) Thank you Anita they are lovely. (mine aren't quite as neat as Anita's, but I am slowly getting there).



Anita so kindly sat and gave me step by step instuctions how to make the lovely flowers.



And here are the flowers I sat and made whilst watching television all day yesterday.





And I would also like to thank Tracey and Anita for being special friends to me this week I really needed you both and you have been there for me so Thank you once again I will never forget it.
