Happy Monday, peeps! Hope you had a good weekend! I've been falling behind on my Christmas card making, so I added one card to my stash this weekend! It fulfills three challenges: Inkspirational's sketch, Christmas 24's challenge to add glitter, and the Merry Little Christmas challenge is Anything Goes:
I really love things in threes, so I diecut three small poinsettias from some rose glimmer paper and heat-embossed a sentiment from For Unto Us:
Each flower was mounted on some pink DSP:
And my heat-embossed sentiment was done in silver to match the silver centers of the flowers:
The sentiment inside was stamped in Merry Merlot ink:
Another to add to my stash!
To add to our "interesting birds of the spring of 2021" theme, John looked out our window yesterday morning before church and said "There's a turkey walking up our driveway!". I believe it was a hen (not sure, though) and when I opened the door for a picture, she turned and went across the yard, around the side of the house and into our back yard all the way to the field:
And sorry, this is such a bad picture, I had a glare, but here she is, walking across the little bridge that goes over our creek....and she continued on into the woods!
It's been such a fun spring for birdwatching! Thanks for popping in today! Enjoy your day and be blessed!
