Its a sketch challenge over at Penny Black this week, this is my effort, I rather like these really bright cards with a mix of colours and patterns. Of course, I forgot to copy the sketch, so you will have to hop over there to see if I did a good job.
I paper pieced the stamp, cutting out the chair in the yellow stripe paper

Today is the first day I have felt 'normal' after struggling with this flu like cold for a week, how nice to have some of my bounce back..............
The sun is still out, the squirrels are playing tag along the fence, there are birds flying around with bits of twigs in their beaks, obviously doing a bit of nest building, and I saw a solitary crocus yesterday. Could Spring be springing?
You did a wonderful job..I love the bright colors you have chosen! Very cute :)

check this out at Penny Black and
add this to my collection. I love
the colors you used. You're lucky

snowed here in Georgia yesterday
then it turned to rain. It's sunny
today, I'm hoping it will finally
start warming up. I can't wait for
Spring to get here!
Thanks Enfys!
