Spring Bird

Fussy and Fancy 
is back with our second challenge for the year

after our long holiday break

and let me tell you it feels 'good'

to be back and getting my 'fussy and fancy' mojo going...lol!

Our theme for the next 2 weeks is 'ribbons and lace'.

One of my paper crafting New Year's resolutions was to use  (or try)

as many of my paper scraps (snippets) and pre-cut, pre-stamped things I could.

so, my entire card with the exception of the ribbon and pearls of course,

came from my scrap bags.

The background embossed piece is one I had embossed and never used,

I added a white frame, as that die is one that when you cut it you get

about 5 different size frames,leaving me plenty more to use.  

I stuck a tiny snippet of lace

just inside the bottom of the frame...can you see it..lol?

Next I added a birdhouse and tulips, both rejected from a previous project.

The bird is a die cut that while a group of 'us' girlies were at at a

friends house and she had this die and cut each of us one,

I have since bought the die myself from Cottage Cutz.

To finish I simply added pearls and ribbon (bow) from my monthly ribbon club at RRR.

We would love to see your lace/ribbon cards at our 

Fussy and Fancy challenge

and don't forget to pop on over and see what my teamies
