Hello everyone and welcome...
I know it has been a while since I posted a card but, alas, I have been sick, sick, sick. Suffering from a wicked head and chest cold that has left me feeling weak as a piece of boiled string.
I have a card to share for Laurie's Challenge to use a favourite stamp set. I have used one of my most favourite sets....Love Lives Here. I go to this stamp set over and over again. I just love it.
This card is an anniversary card for dear friends of mine who live in a wonderful log home in the country that the hubby built with his own two very skilled hands. I have tried to sort of recreate that feeling with my little birdhouse.
I have placed my little birdhouse on the Berry Wreath Tag die and backed that with a Spellbinders scalloped die. The branch from which the birdhouse is hanging is from another favourite set, Spring Woods. The sentiment is also from Love Lives Here, stamped on a die cut with Banner Sentiments.
They are a non-fussy kind of couple but I felt that even though I have kept the card very simple it needed something and that was a lovely piece of silk ribbon in a bow. I do love ribbon!
That is it from me for today. Where I live they are predicting 40 cm of snow tonight (that is 16" for those of you who do not use metric) so we are battening down the hatches to prepare for it. I think it is time to crawl back into my jammies and relax with a hot cup of tea and a good book...
Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a wonderful day. Cheers.
Melanie
