Color Throwdown # 76
Happy Friday!
My doggie, Lily, this is her (and Taryn) a few years ago when she was a puppy..... had to go to the vet this morning to have a lump removed from her neck. We'll know by next week if it is anything to worry about but I can't get her off my mind. She is a very timid dog and is probably very scared right now :(
Anyhoo, the thing that keeps my mind busy is making something so I took a shot at the color throwdown!
Here are this week's colors.....
I love this combination it is so fresh and spring-like! Here is what I came up with.
I hand cut the bird image and adhered it to the card stock. I pierced around the border and back stitched with some embroidery thread. The sentiment is from a Heidi Grace set that I just got on ebay and couldn't wait to use! The ink is from the $1.50 bin at Micheal's and just happened to be the perfect color!
I had the urge to tie a ribbon or twine ( i heart twine) around the bottom.... what do you think? twine or no twine- the eternal question, lol!
Have a great weekend and thanks for stopping by!
