Tatty Teddy and Tits

Hi all, hope you are well the suns out here today

hurray not see it for a while, it's still windy though

can't have it all lol.

Kids break up for their half term today, it only seems like they have been back at school for five minutes since the last hols, not complaining though 

i don't need to get up so early.

My card today is made for a few challenges

Bearly Mine - Die cuts and Lace

Addicted to stamps - Pink and Brown

Bunny Zoe's - Lace

Crafts and Me - Gems and pearls

The papers are from the fabulous

summer lace range at Bearly mine.

I have used another of those fabby Tatty Teddy

stamps from do crafts, stamped in rich cocoa ink

and coloured with polychromos pencils.

I have stamped the edge with the

feather stamp form clarity, in Vintage photo

distress ink.

The sentiment is from LOTV also stamped in Vintage photo.

The lace i bought a few years ago from John Lewis

it's been in my cupboard never been used, stroked a 

few times, then put back away.

Anyway i have decided to start using everything,

my pile of stroking stash is getting bigger and basically

i need the space, there's always more to buy.

Pearls and gems from stash.

Oval nestability, tag Go create.

I don't know if you remember that i

mentioned that there were some Blue Tits 

showing a bit of interest in my bird box, well

the did nest and on Wednesday they fledged.

I've been trying to take a picture which is 

pretty hard as they stay well hidden but i saw 

one in the apple tree this morn, so with my long lens 

i managed to get a shot

 It's a bit blurry i had to take the picture from

inside the conservatory so i had window glare, then 

it was sat in the middle of the tree so struggled 

to get a good focus, but anyway this is the best piccy. 

This is mum or dad (can't tell the difference), grabbing

food off the feeder to feed it.

I didn't see them leave the nest i think i happened upon 

them just after they left, they were sat in the Elderflower tree next to the nest, tweeting away Feed me Feed me.


Hope you enjoyed that 
thanks for stopping by today
