Finished Basket!

Here it is! My finished heart basket. It's actually pretty large, the base started as a 12x12 square and then we had to un-weave some at the top to get the heart shape. I'm happy with the way it came out. Now I just need to decide on a finish - I'm thinking about a white-washed stain look or maybe even pink. Anyway, it was a fun night out even with all the running around.

Today my husband's aunt is having elbow surgery and will apparently be out of work for about 6 weeks. So I decided she could probably use some "Chirp-ing up!" (hee hee)

Don't you just love the SAB "Very Punny" set?? It took me a while to warm up to it, but I now have seen soooooo many cute cards and project done with that I love it! I took my color choices from the SAB mini catalog, Orchid Opulence, Tempting Turquoise, Cool Caribbean & Whisper White. I love the Flirty ribbons from the Winter mini so I had to use the Cool Caribbean rick-rack. The little bird was colored with my Aqua-painter and ink pads and I used my sponge daubers to swirl some Orchid ink around her. I did stamp a little bit of Canvas at the bottom (which was also inspired by the SAB mini).

Back to the stamping room now, it's my sister-in-law's birthday so time for more playing! Isn't it just so fun when you "have to" stamp!! :) Have a great day everyone and a big thanks for looking in!
