Adorable Bessie For Nicecrane Designs

Just a couple of cards I'd like to show you that use two touching images from

Nicecrane Designs.

 Here's a glimpse inside

 And another

This card was guided by a couple challenges. 

One being the photo inspiration below and the other to use banners and bunting.

I hope you enjoy my interpretation of both.

The photo inspired me with the concept of flight. When something leaves, you miss it.  The colors were also so vibrant and required here. The tail feathers resembled a crown to me.

The banner challenge was fun as well. 

I've included a paper banner and two banners I've crocheted in white.

Here's a preview of the images available from

 Adorable Bessie.

 Thanks for stopping in. If you like the images, you can find them here at

Have a great one!

Hello and welcome back!

Here's my little scalloped circle card for the 76th Linky Party going on over at

Make It Monday!

I decided for a simplistic card this week.

I've painted on my clouds and then formed a branch from tissue paper and a nest from moss as my cover focal point.

Then followed up the cover of the card with this cute little sentiment, Miss You Birdie, from our Sponsor Meljen's Designs.

 Using the same bird but added the salutation for the backside of the card.

Sometimes a little goes a long way and I think the card pretty much says it all.

I hope you've enjoyed this card and can make it over to 

Make It Monday to join us.

Before I thank our generous Sponsor again, I'd like to show you my

PICK OF THE WEEK!

This wonderful winter land beauty is from Bettina

Thank you Bettina for sharing your talent with us at
