Clickerty Cluck.....Clickerty Clack....

Happy thursday morning bloggers, we've got a new challenge starting today over on Cute Card Thursday.  Our theme this week is 'A Stitch in Time' and the prize sponsor is Simon Says Stamp.

I just love this Penny Black stamp 'Spin a Yarn', those knitting chickies are such fun and ever since I bought the stamp, whenever I get together with my crafting/knitting/sewing pals, it comes to mind  ha....ha...... !

The image was coloured using Copics and I gave all the chickies sparkly knitting needles using a Spica Glitter Pen.  The background was created using some self adhesive fabric I had in my stash, the design is a patchwork effect with faux stitching, just perfect for this theme. 

I added some ribbon and drew faux stitching around the image layer, and finished off the design with one of my favourite sentiments, stamped with SU! Cherry Cobbler ink.

That's it for today folks.  Thanks for visiting, hope you liked my project today.



To all my lovely online pals who have been in touch about my Dad's health issues recently, the latest update is that he's now out of hospital once again.  There is a possibility that he may have had a blood clot on his lung but the doctors can't agree on this, they are adjusting his dosage of Warfarin until they are happy with the clotting factor levels.  He's feeling OK and is very pleased to be back home again, so we are all hoping that things will settle down again now.
