I used:
- 6" x 6" white scalloped square card
- stamped image from Sugar Nellie, designed by Elisabeth Bell and called 'Scattering Love'. Coloured with chalks and Dove blender pen - and I almost lost the will to live trying to mask the single chicken at the front and then re-stamp to have two. In the end I stamped, coloured and cut them out before sticking 'em on!!
- image then die cut and backed with pale blue paper by tracing round the outside edge of the die and hand cutting
- the patterned paper is by Wild Rose Studios, called 'Annabelle's Meadow' - some really pretty papers in this stack too
- sentiment was a digi-freebie from Karen ages ago
- blue seam binding, bakers twine and little 'Made with love' charm all came from my crafting goodies
Edit - this is so funny, Mr Blogger published this earlier than planned! I was waiting until after I'd met up with 'the recipient' later today - however, she's not likely to see this before we meet up, I hope :) Better take a hard hat just in case - I just read what a Gibbs slap is!

Hi Di
ReplyDeleteReally lovely card, the chickens look lovely, great colouring. ASll the colours go so well together.
Hi Di, lovely card and do you think we haven't guessed who it is yet? You've captured the Sunday Roasters perfectly and I do like that Wild Rose Studio paper - it's sooooo pretty. It's Saturday and the weekend now, so do enjoy yourself whatever you're doing. Elizabeth x
ReplyDeleteTee hee Di .. .. think we will all be able to guess who the lucky recipient was.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great and very personal card.
Never heard of a Gibbs slap .. .. but as that is my surname I hope people don't think I go round the playground slapping people!!!
See you tomorrow with my snippets.
Love Jules xx
