FMS ~ Hello

I was doing a little desk clean up and came across a few snippets that I put together for this week's Freshly Made Sketches challenge. Take a look...

I don't even know where the polka dot paper came from. It was something I had as a backing in a frame from years ago. The little bird is actually a sticker. I purchased a nifty little tin containing birds, nests and eggs at a specialty shop a long time ago. The pretty floral square is an old MME item from Archivers. I cut down the square and trimmed out around the flowers. They were colored with Copic markers. I saw a pair of chickadees much like this one on our bird feeder yesterday. They reminded me that we need to get more seed for the winter months ahead!

Off this flys to the gallery. I hope you're enjoying your weekend. We have some gorgeous weather happening right now. Our evening walks have been the perfect temps and so enjoyable! Take care, friends.

Such a sweet card and it's even sweeter when you can use up those little bits and pieces! We, too, are having beautiful weather! Enjoy!

You combined all those random pieces into one beautiful card, Lisa. I'm a sucker for birds and that chickadee is darling. I need to put up my bird camera when I get home.

My eyes feel so good looking at this, Lisa! Love the soft colors, polka dots, and chickadee! We have so many at our feeders right now. Enjoy your lovely fall weather. I had the dogs out on a long run yesterday, warm and beautiful. Today it's raining, but that's okay, too.
