I've been rediscovering my old stamps after a tidy out, and this wee Sugar Nellie stamp hasn't seen ink for aaaaages! It was another one I bought because it had a 'Ruby' on it! And my star sizzix die hasn't been used for a long time either. Bad me.
Coloured with a mixture of copics and promarkers. Paper pieced his jumper and added clear gloss to his wellies. Basic Grey DP.
- Sketch from the Sugar Bowl #81 with the added option of using plaid
- Colour combo from Play Date Cafe PDCC127 Daffodil...Hydrangea...Kiwi...Cherry
- The Pixie Cottage #116 - paper piecing
- Try it Tuesday - pampered pets (my West Highland Terrier)
Here's a wee photo of the best singer in town - doesn't he look like a happy chappie! This wee blackbird chirps away at the bottom of our garden for hours on end (... though I can't say its just as pleasant at 4am!)

Oh wee Hamish looks very cute - I know I have that stamp somewhere. I'm feeling really bad now after reading of all the work you got done - I had good intentions, but that's as far as I got!!
Cute card! I hope you'll link up at 52 Card Pickup this week...http://www.oldbackporch.com/2012/04/52-card-pickup-week-15.html
Oh, you caught that blackbird at just the right moment, to catch him singing! What a neat photo.
And what a sweet cluster of stars you've got on your card! Thanks for joining us at The Play Date Cafe this week. :)
Very sweet card, and a beautiful photograph. It's always the blackbird that starts the dawn chorus here too! :o)

This is so cute, Lynne! That Nellie sure makes me smile and I love that Ruby is on her sweater. Eeek!
Oh, this is too cute...love everything about this card...Ruby on the sweater, all those dotted stars,..it's a very happy card!
About that bird singing at 4:00 a.m., things never sound that good that early, do they? His song is much prettier around 8 or 9 a.m. :-)
Such a cute card, thanks playing long with TioT this week hugs

Hi Lynne I love that image of Hamish I have always like these stamps when I visit the Funky Kits site, the colours you have used look great so is the design. I do love to hear the birds sing especially the Blackbirds, I often sit for ages listening to the dawn chorus.
