Friendship Warms The Heart.........

Hello all you lovelies how are you all? The weather has been canny up here by the sea today, even got a load of washing dry.........then Natalie gave me some more....she so loves her mammy lol.
Over at Tiddly Inks this time they want to see fabric & I do love to join in their challenges so I've kinda gone Fabric OTT..........but what the 'eck lol.
I've used one of the fabulous Wryns, I so love these cuties!!
Its not very often I use an image twice especially when I've got so many still to use but this is my fave Wryn & I cropped her just a wee bit for a slightly different look.

I used WOJ Pennants to make fabric flags & hand stitched across the top & added small pearls.
I used another fabric to place in the middle. Fabric is from my stash that I've had a while.

I've added some pretty lace & lush ribbon to add bit more fabric. All from my stash along with the button & I added a little bit of Jute Ribbon.

This is 'Close To My Heart' Wryn I've coloured her with Copics & added Stardust Stickles to her wings. Well she deserves some bling does our Wryn

For my last bit of fabric I made a tag out of fabric using one of my Doo-Hickey dies, I cut out 2 pieces of fabric & hand stitched around the edge. I used a piece of cream fabric & stamped a sentiment on it, its a sentiment from one of my wood block stamps. I added some more Jute Ribbon & a button & tied some string through it & a Tim Holtz safety pin which is just for looks as its also glued onto the card.

Well I've babbled on long enough so tatty bye my lovelies will be round later to catch up with you.
Thank you for stopping by big hugs to you all mmwah xoxoxoxo

You tell about the weather near the sea and I saw a picture in your sidebar from Northumberland, do you live there????
