Here is the tag I created for my swap partner Elizabeth. I thought a blue bird of happiness in a nest and lilacs would say spring.  I used  Papertrey Ink Die Feathered Friends Set 15 for the bird. I inked on the blue color. I created the nest with string, and the eggs with paper clay painted with acrylic craft paint. The lilacs are made by punching lots of small flowers.

  First time using these village dies.   Sizzix - Tim Holtz - Thinlits Dies - Village Collection     It was a bit challenging gluing the tiny parts (like the windows). but so fun!    I used metallic paper behind the windows hoping it would reflect the light and look like the lights were on.  The collection has so many parts that make it easy to create many different styles of buildings I know will be making more of these in the future.  :)  ❤️   Thank you for stopping by!!! ~Terry   ..read more

 Hi scrappy friends! I know I haven't posted more about my "Morning Walk Journal". It has been the January from....(you know where) .... around here. We had major wind storms and power outages that lasted for days. And then to top it of 2 weeks ago I had to go in for eye surgery to repair a detached retina. Surgery went well and I'm healing as expected, but for about 3 months I won't be able to see out of my right eye. Everything is just a big blur in that eye. I have just recently resumed walking with Ida Mae. And I do intend to get back to my Morning walk journal. This page I had begun ..read more
