Pretty Pins


Hi there ...
It's another rainy a day here and I have done my Monday morning stint at Pilates ... and then I came home to a lovely little package from sweet June Lanum ... Look at these lovely handmade pins ...




Aren't they just the cutest?? and all sweetly wrapped in this little bag too ... She's one clever and very kind lady as well as a good friend. Now some of you may not know that June has not been too well .. I'm sure she won't mind me telling you that she has been back to the hospital and is trying to take it a bit easy for a while ... so I know she would be delighted if you popped over to her blog and left her some get well wishes.
"Thank you ever so much June ... we love you!"
I also have a little card to share with you ... this is one of those cards that starts off as 'something' then goes wrong ... so I leave it to the side until I am ready to revisit it. I never throw things away ... there is always some sort of rescue waiting .... Do you have things like that?





And so my obsession with birds and all things postal continues ... loving these WaltzingMouse stamps too ... just ordered my 3rd set .... If only Claire did MF goodies too I'd think I'd died and gone to heaven .... (sigh)

Till soon

Ros

Hi Ros !! Oh those pins are so cute. The Halloween one is brilliant. And yeap I have lots of things like that I put them aside sometimes they get "rescued" others they just sit in a drawer for a looong time. Have a great week and thanks so much for your comments they brighten my day :D

Oh my; this card is beautiful. The bird and the cage are adorable. Perfect card; I can't see /find anything wrong about this card.
And these pins from June are fabulous; enjoy them!
I'll order some stamps too at WMS; and maybe I have found an adress here for MF. If I can order I'll send you some. It's easy to choose some supplies for you...We have the same taste :)
Love and XXX

I'm in love with that dreamy postcard image peeking out. I think many of my cards start off with grand ideas and then I push them to the side til I'm inspired again. Always have a few on the go at once;)

Have an awesome day!!

The bird cage is beautiful, especially against that black bird! Very pretty card. Cute pins, too!

How lovely to receive something so pretty through the post.
Your card turned out fab,I must get that TH birdcage die.
If I'm not happy with my project I always put it to one side and finish it off when I know what it needs.
