A few special birthdays

 

I haven't been in the mood for making cards recently but as there were a few special birthday cards needed I had to get going and now I'm feeling a bit more motivated !  These are not really my type of cards but made to suit the recipients (I Hope)  Having got these completed I've been busy getting a bit more inky tonight and have another couple almost finished so will be posting them soon.  I have really neglected my blog and spend too much time aimlessly snooping on facebook LOL.

Here comes Spring

 The new challenge at Try It On Tuesday is Here Comes Spring.  My first thoughts about spring are always about new growth so my journal pages is about flowers and baby birds.  My background is inked and stencilled, bird in the nest is a very old Stampendous stamp, flowers are Thinlets die cuts.  The design team have lots of inspiration over on the challenge site so I hope you will pay them a visit.
