this is what I'm working on at the moment...

I enjoy much more than paper crafting. This weekend I picked up this little book:
It has a few cute patterns .I love chickens and roosters in the kitchen so I decided to make this guy:
That's a picture in the book!I just started mine.Let's see how long it takes me to complete it.

That's as far as I've gotten!

I am also working on a cross stitch project to give as a gift to my mother.

This is the first time I work on a stamped image.I like it!It seems to be a lot quicker.
I am working on it every second I have so that maybe I can give it to her for Mother's day.
Yes I know!Should have started earlier. I am a procrastinator.=/
Working on it!
I will come back later and post a few more cards I've made .Time for me to run and catch my bus to get to work.Have a lovely day!
Are you making anything for your Mother or special someone in your life?

    I can't crochet but I wish I could! There are so many completely wonderful patterns out there! The cross stitch looks lovely, I remember trying it recently and thinking, how the heck did the Victorians sit around doing this all day, haha! But I made my mom a bracelet out of vintage spoons.

    The chicken is wonderful. Is it a tea cozy or something? It would be fun to have that over your tea pot at the table, wouldn't it?

“Roses and thorns are parts of the same plant. Somehow though, some people are concerned mainly about the roses. The rose is not on the plant for more than a week, but the thorns are there forever. Roses are teaching that the beauty of life will bloom, once you have taught yourself the lessons given by living with the thorns.”  ―  Grigoris Deoudis This post is part of the  Nature Footstep meme.  A meme all about flowers and macro shots.
