Papertake Weekly Challenge

Morning folks.....bright and early post ..lots on the "To Do" list today...so what's new.. but things are looking up....the snow is disappearing ....the DT work is almost finished and I managed to have a little play yesterday.   The challenge this week over at Papertake Weekly
is an open theme....yes we can choose to do anything we like......what a great excuse to delve into the fabulous goodie bag that my bloggy buddies and I got from the lovely Sue at Craftwork Cards when we popped over to say hello at the NEC....and voila...the cubbyhole has a new wall decoration to brighten the place up a bit.




Prima papers & Chipboard Birdhouse
from Craftwork Cards
Buttons: Customlaser
Sentiment: My Litle Shoebox...Tiny Alphas
American Crafts....Fabric Thickers
Brad and chain from stash
Hero Arts: Stripes Pattern

And check out those gorgeous gorgeous wooden buttons....this was one of our finds right at the end of the day and if the man in charge of the tannoy hadn't been so insistent on getting us out of the hall....I would have bought more.....so a trip over to Customlaser is called for.
And talking of Craftwork Cards.....oh my giddy aunt....do they have a fabulous competition for you all....
