Distress Ink cards

Well once I get started on the Distress ink backgrounds it's hard to stop so I made some cards while the table was a mess. Here are a few of them.

What have you been creating this week?

Wendy

Ruffed Grouse visitor

This beautiful Ruffed Grouse was hanging around the trees beside our house for a few days. Oddly it didn't seem at all nervous about people being around and even walked right up to me as I was taking pictures of it. I felt like it was trying to tell me something. It seemed rather sad and lonely although didn't appear hurt at all. I must go out and see it's still there today.



This is why I live in the country. You never know what wonderful creatures your going to encounter on any given day.

Hope you're having a wonderful and peaceful Sunday like I am.

Take care.

More birdhouse necklaces.

Thanks for your wonderful comments and suggestions for my new birdhouse necklace design. They will definitely help as I continue to make more variations of this birdhouse.
Here are two more necklace similar in design to my first one. I think my next ones will have some vines and flowers on, so keep your eyes open for them.

Happy Earth Day

I hope your all having a wonderful Earth Day!

I've been thinking recycle this week because the tag theme over at Kard Krazy is Recycle, Re purpose and Reuse. How appropriate that I finished it today on Earth Day.

I found this challenge fun and easy. I used old cereal boxes for all my die cutting instead of bought chip board. All the papers I used were bits left over from other projects which is what I usually do for my tag and card making so that was a given.

This challenge really got me thinking about all the other things we throw out that I could have used. I'm looking forward to try to use more things in my art that I would normally throw away.

So now I'm going to go check out all the other tags to see what they found to recycle, re-purpose and reuse.
