Our Backyard Friends

These little hummingbirds buzz all over our back yard so yesterday i was lucky to catch a few pictures of this female. They empty the feeder so quickly i have to refill it about every 3 days. Isn't she sweet?!?

"John Deere" Father's Day

A Little Bird Told Me

It's been a few weeks since i was able to sit and create some cards. Too much else on my plate i guess. So last night i created 4 new ones. I will be posting the other 3 after this post.

My son-in-law is celebrating his birthday this week so i made this card for him.

This set is so adorable and i am glad i added it to my ever growing colection. This was also my first try at paper piecing and i am happy with the results. I will do this technique a lot more!!
