Good morning and a happy Saturday to you - would you believe that the tap in the sky seems to not be turned on right now - its amazing! I'm not expecting too much though because the forecast isn't so good.

There seemed to be a whole host of challenges going around to do with birds and things with wings - so I used the excuse to ink up the magpie set of stamps from clarity - I had to buy them - but this is the first chance I had to ink them up!

I used Katy's sketch from over at Do crafts this week and layout my elements accordingly. I used tim holtz distress papers and several distress inks to create the background (stormy sky, broken china and chipped sapphire) of both the card and the tag. The stamp I stamped in denim blue adirondack but then used some promarkers and some cosmic shimmer water colour paints to complete the look. I must say - I am very chuffed with the way this has turned out!

I'd like to enter it into the following challenges:

Whoopsi Daisycutedaisymay: Things with wings

CYPCcraftyourpassionchallenges: Things with wings

cupcakecraftchallenges: Birds of a feather

fashionistachallenge: Winged things

divasbydesignchallenge: Tag your it.

I hope the rain keeps off - we had planned swimming but if its going to be dry it would be nice to get out into the garden!

Big Hugs
