Love Birds ...

I have made a card today using a stamp set from Woodware, I have found the quality of this brand of stamps poor in the past but I just love this bird cage and I have to say since my last purchase of Woodware the quality has improved 100% and I would recommend them now.  Maybe its just me but I always found them very thin and prone to tearing.  Anyways the cage is hanging from a couple of links and behind as the picture below shows I have stamped the sentiment 'A little bird told me...' which is included in the set.

The stamp set is called Bird Song (FRCL169) available at Sir Stampalot but I purchased mine from the Make It Show in Farnborough last month.  I have stamped in Momento ink and coloured with Promarkers.  Cardstock again is from LOTV (as per previous post).  Backing paper is from Dovecraft, a 6x6 pack called 'Eastern Blooms' it contains 72 sheets of beautiful papers and I paid £1 again at the show last month.

Hand stitched as ever, blah blah.  The pink card, pearls and ribbon are from my stash.  Flowers and pin are Wild Orchid Crafts and a Martha Stewart branch punch to finish.
