Saturday 11th October

I love Elizabeth Bell stamps whether it be from Funky Kits or Whiff of Joy, each weekend I pop over to Elizabeth's blog to drool over the wonderful new illustrations and wish each one ends up a stamp. And that is why I feel so guilty over this card




I've clipped Matthew's wings, I so sorry but I prefer him without them.

So now that you've got over the shock, I've used this weeks Whiff of Joy challenge, which is a sketch from Heather, the papers are Chatterbox.

Off to another Crops today at Thatcham with the lovely MJ from Every Moment Matters and I've promised myself to pull myself together and actually scrapbook and less chat.

This is really lovely Debby. Matting the papers really sets them off and they all work really well together. I think he looks good with his wings clipped!

Just beautiful, must say I also prefer him wingless. His too cute now, to just go and fly off some time. Warm regards
