With Wings

 I'm here this morning with a card for Allsorts new challenge - week 716

                  *** Anything Goes - Option 'Things with Wings" ***

This month's sponsors and prizes come from 

WOWVOWCraft StashAALL and Create and Ruth Hamilton Design

Clearing out some older stamp sets has been a project lately - must make room for buying new things! Well, have you ever put something in the 'Moving On' box and then fished it out again?  Susan Raihala of http://simplicitybylateblossom.blogspot.com/ was one of the first crafters I followed. Her style and teaching really were an inspiration. She also once gave some advice about purging the hoard...er, collection.  Put them in a box, store it somewhere away, and after a year you can send it off knowing you really haven't missed any of its contents.  Todays stamp just got fished out of a box placed in the garage last spring. Rescued in the nick of time I say :-)  :-)

Stamped this set from CTMH and water colored. The top cream linen panel was cut with a Lawn Fawn stitched +scalloped circle die.

  1. We all do it Dena, it's tough parting with anything crafty but sometimes has to be done.

    The Bird image is very pretty and looks perfect framed and coloured in the Spring colours.

  7. Beautiful card, Dena. Sounds like you rescued your stamp just in time. Great idea to have a 'Moving On' box. I find it difficult to part with any crafty things, so I might just try this. xx
