Three Little Birds

How cute are these birds?

….. And guess where these stickers came from? Assessorize!  They are new stock and  I nearly missed them, as they were tucked up behind some other bits and pieces.  They cost £1.75 and hopefully I will get at least 6 cards from one packet.

I have made the branch using three punchies made with the punch below , bought at The Hobbycrafts Show  in November.

The card took just a few minutes to make.

Thank you all again for your lovely comments - I was having a little chuckle to myself and thought I could offer a shopping trip with me as blog candy!

Believe it or not I don't shop a lot!  I just shop fast and furious and can scan shelves for crafty stuff in seconds!  My favourite place for shopping has got to be Manchester Paperchase - last time I went, I was in there for almost 2 hours and  still went back again after I had been round the other shops!  Manchester is my once a year October treat with my sister, I just love it.
