love you...

 Look at me!  Posting again, lol.   Like I said in my last post I have been enjoying cross-stitching, but I was also a little burned out on paper crafting and needed a bit of a break.  But you know that I can't resist participating in my two favorite challenges:  Color Throwdown and Freshly Made Sketches.  I just love the color palette that Amy has this week and was inspired by the sweet little bird in the inspiration photo.  Making my idea work with the FMS sketch was a challenge, but one that I was up for.  Take a look:


I had to dig through my cardstock to find the right color to die cut my little bird from.  This little cutie is called Perched Reed Bird from Memory Box and is one of the first MB dies that I purchased.  I just love it.  The little leafy stems are from a new to me Poppystamps die set called Orchard Leaves.   The sentiment is one that I stamped along time ago using the Simon Says Stamp Thanks and Encouragement Word Mix stamp and die set.   I thought the tag was the perfect size for my little bird, leaves and sentiment.  I added a little crystal to the bird for the eye and some black and white twine to complete the tag.
