Happy weekend everyone.
At Allsorts this time Lynne has chosen the optional theme and we would love to see your projects featuring
Things with Wings (anything goes also welcome too)
Prize of $30 gift card from Taylored Expressions and extra prize of an A4 stamp set.
Oce more I have had a good old rummage and found a really sweet Little Claire Designs clear stamp. I also found another very old My Minds Eye paper pad that had just the right sized designs that I was looking for so the little hen and her comfy cushion were coloured to match. The doily was made using an equally old Joy Crafts die and the sweet flowers were from a shop whose name has escaped my ageing brain. I want to say Wild Orchid Crafts but I might be wrong!! Finished off with a lovely Craftwork Cards sentiment badge. Wow, that really has been a trip down memory lane using all those old products!!
If you've made it this far with all my waffling I hope that you have a lovely weekend, wherever and whatever you are doing. It's Mothers Day here in the UK on Sunday so it would be nice to see a little bit of sunshine.
See you soon xx

Sweet, and aren't you good using up those hoarded DP pads! ;)
More lambs yesterday, this time with raincoats as the forecast was poor. Anyway they seem to have survived and are now pinging in the field, sun shining down. :)
Such a charming trip through your stash. The Little Claire hen looks right at home on that cushion, and the way you pulled the colors from that old MME pad gives the whole scene a warm, nostalgic feel. The doily detail adds a lovely bit of softness, and those flowers frame everything so naturally. It is fun to see how beautifully these older supplies still shine when they are in the right hands.
It all came together beautifully. I do like that DP, be nice for a sewing themed card too.
I remember that MMY pad, had it as well once. Love the hen with her bow, clearly she is sitting and will produce very soon.

Fabulous card, Sarah! What a good idea you had to give these oldies the light of day again... x
Love your use of patterned papers for this cute chicken Sarah. Such a pretty card and well done on using old stash too x
egg-cellent design:-) Every January i start with the mission to make a dent in my pile of 6x6 pads and I make a good go - Im sure they breed in the dark of the cupboard! lol
Oh, Wild Orchid Crafts had such beautiful flowers, I bet you are correct! The card is just the sweetest. Love how you have combined all the elements.
