Look at this sassy lass, the stamp is by Hampton Arts (I think, I borrowed it to stamp some images). Papers are by making memories and the ribbon is some quite thick fringed stuff that I found lurking in a drawer (I have lots of lurking ribbons). The black brads aren't brads at all but domed paper shapes (a UK invention, I have never seen them on sale in the USA), I love them, they are called card candy, come in every colour under the sun and are a fraction of the price of brads. I think I got them from Craftwork Cards. The white scallops were done with an EK success border punch, and the black scallop card is by papermania UK..
We have a bird living somewhere in a tree near here. I know he lives there because he chirps all night. Honestly, I thought they were supposed to shut up at night and get some shut-eye, but no, he makes the same chirp (a long two-tone sort of chirp) ALL night. Doesn't stop for breath. Wouldn't you think he would get a sore throat from doing that all night long. Notice that I have given him a male gender, his missus is probably too busy cleaning the nest to do any chirping.
Good morning Enfy another great card hunny, and the text is perfect! and so true. Hope you are enjoying your weekend, hugs Linda x

Fantastic card. I can so relate to the bird story. The birds here start about 3:15 a.m. and don't stop until around 8:00 a.m. It was nice at first..... I think it's a little annoying now! LOL
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day.
Hugs,
Enfys your card is `beautiful` love black and white with a hint of Red very Classy...
ReplyDeleteLove that saying!!
Happy M`day to you have a graet Day:)♥
I LOVE THIS CARD!!!!!! And those paper brad things ... jealous, very jealous.
ReplyDeleteI'll trade you the tree frogs that stick to my bedroom window and croak for your bird. Deal?
Oh Enfys what a darling card. I know what you mean about the birds. Mocking birds have invaded our backyard (NOT native!) and they start up about 2:00am and don't stop until the sun rises. Not fun for the time of year when one longs to sleep with open windows. Happy Mother's Day...Kris
ReplyDeletelove the stamp and the wording is SO true!!! as for the bird....get some cats LOL have a wonderful mothers day :D
ReplyDeleteLove your oh so elegant card Enfys. I agree entirely!!!!
ReplyDeleteHave you got your ear plugs ready for tonight.

What a true card! Sorry to hear about your bird problem. I have an unnatural fear of birds...which I can't really explain. Here's hoping you can get some shut eye tonight.
ReplyDeleteHi Enfys, I spent hours and hours reading your blog yesterday and finally finished reading about 2.30am brummie time. I'm about 15 minutes away from Solihull. Your cards are brilliant, and after seeing what you've done with the various cricut cartridges, have inspired me to buy more (I only have 4 or 5) Enjoy the rest of your stay in Florida, and I hope the birdies are on their best behaviour from tonight.
ReplyDeleteGreat card En, but do men ever really mature?!!
ReplyDeleteHope your birdie lets you sleep tonight :)
Hugs
