Not only is there a beautiful card and tag by which to be inspired, but more so the personal story behind it. A very beautiful mindset, and one I must take to heart.

I too loved the story of the bird and just marvel at your exquisite work and how much delicate detail goes into each of your projects. It truly delights me to visit with you. And I too have so many "virginal" stamps and was even working on cleaning out my room a bit yesterday...much of which was still some sewing things that remain and will be given to someone who will use them rather than store them. And it certainly is freeing. But I too always see something I love, and you've enabled me with the pansies. I've seen it before (in your email) and clicked. But this time I purchased it. You know how much I love digital images and all the possibilities. I love the sentiments, and the beautiful gift for Lis will cheer her greatly. What a precious bird, and I love the photo of the pink bird. Tender hugs and much love, sweet friend! xoxoCherylQuiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07264701469608248158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5047286263309535644.post-43557234365051021032017-03-26T11:54:55.651-05:002017-03-26T11:54:55.651-05:00A fabulous card and tag, and that bird is a must h...A fabulous card and tag, and that bird is a must have - maybe you were waiting for the mojo to do it justice?

I wish I had the restraint you did, but I just love all those embellies that make cards expensive to mail, and I can't stop reaching for them when I'm in the craft room. lol. Don't even get me started on the drawer full of stamps that are still in the packages! Well your work with embossing powders is brilliant as always, loving that bird cage! Your colours and layouts are so beautiful, and of course your little birdie is just delightful!!<br /><br />I love your story about the pink bird, so very true isn't it. I do hope you forgive me for returning your emails. Seems every time I sit with the intention to send you a hello, the phone rings or something else gets in the way.

So much to look at and enjoy on these wonderful spring tags, with flowers, birds, pink at that!, and your story to go with. Always a pleasure to see what you are up to because you know it is going to be beautiful, sparkly, and most impressive to look at and take in. You have always stood out to me from my first visit to your blog. You are the most caring individual I've met blogging, and it is my pleasure to say I know her, she's my friend.<br /><br />Hugs<br />SueSuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09075413660314785473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5047286263309535644.post-55752475168479866592017-03-21T13:07:26.427-05:002017-03-21T13:07:26.427-05:00You have ALWAYS been pink!

I have some and it's very pretty just on white (sometimes doesn't show well on white though depending on where I've put it). Like the idea to try over color though. Love the composition with the birds & tags, luscious layers, and the great stitching. Well done all round. TFS the info about Lis, I didn't know she was having difficulties - so will be in touch with her. Big hugs, and I hope your afternoon is just as pretty as it is round here! TFS (loved the story too! I like happy endings!)MaryHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00348601616104255526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5047286263309535644.post-74635124166990235312017-03-21T13:03:14.506-05:002017-03-21T13:03:14.506-05:00Donna, I don't know where to start, I LOVE you...Donna, I don't know where to start, I LOVE your projects, both stunning and so detailed.

She's so perfect and that's such a fab photo of the other bird in flight! I wonder if you know how many friends you help 'get their pink on' each and every week?

I have stamps like this too, being in my stash for a long time before being used. Not because I don't love it, but it's waiting for the right moment and design inspiration to come along. I find certain challenges help me use more of my stash. Before it was twofers challenge blog, now closed, now its color challenge ones. With these challenges I need to go through my whole stash of rubber stamps to find one suitable, one that speaks to me for that particular color scheme. It's a process I've come to enjoy.p very much. <br />Very successful stitching on your card, I love stitching on cards. And beautiful color and texture coordination. The background paper on the tag is really special, it looks like a layered collage of sorts. Beautiful work!

I am as guilty as you are with stamps, I have quite a few (loads in fact) that have yet to be inked - every so often though I have a splurge and stamp some out for future use and then I feel soooo pleased with myself - lol. This little birdy is looking very similar to a wren that comes to the bird cafe in our garden. Mind you he isn't pink (much to his chagrin)!! Fabulous story about the songbird - brought a smile to my face and cheered up a dismal, wet day here!!<br /><br />Lots of big hugs to you Sue PxxxPlanetsusiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03759000585982268669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5047286263309535644.post-80535381718635447762017-03-20T05:26:12.076-05:002017-03-20T05:26:12.076-05:00Hi Donna,
