I decided since this was going to be another hand delivered card that I would use a button on it, while going through my buttons I came across this earring that was in a jar of buttons I had bought from Flea market and thought the color may go well with the colors of the flowers, I used my wire cutters to cut off the post and then used glue dot to add it to the tag.

We had sunshine today, we haven't had that in a few days and we go back to rain and more clouds tomorrow so I have been soaking this up. Hope your are enjoying sunshine wherever you are.
Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today,

It is a darling card,Connie!Perfect for Spring!Hugs!
What a pretty and feminine card. I would not have thought to use an earring, but I do have plenty that have lost their pair!
BEAUTIFUL Connie and fabulous coloring with those pencils! TeeHee ... I have a few earrings hanging around that need to be incorporated into a card ... thanks for inspiration! We are still dealing with 'the white stuff' here in Akron, OH but they are saying mid 50s next week ... YAY ... come on sunshine! I could sure use it! LOL
Ooops forgot to thank you for joining in our 'Birds' challenge over at the Sisterhood of Crafters! THANKS!!!!
Wowie, this is gorgeous, Connie!! Beautiful image, lovely design and background papers. You're an expert with the pencil coloring! I have old earrings in my doodads drawers. Can't help but see everything in terms of how it might look on a card, tee hee!

Connie, what a sweet little bird! I love the background text behind it too. The weather here has been screwy. Snow yesterday Sun today and Snow due Saturday night. My daffodils don't know which end is up.
I LOVE this Design, earring and all! There's just something about a bird on a card, so majestic and magical! You know this card would also be perfect for our 'Just Wing It' Challenge over at The Double D Challenge Blog: http://daranddiane.blogspot.com/2018/03/just-wing-it.html
Very pretty. Love the script, always a favourite of mine. Lovely colouring too.
Sweet little birdie....sweet little card, Connie. I love the button! Hope you are enjoying that sunshine.
I love the collage style of this beautiful card! What a clever idea to use unwanted earrings for embellishments. I just threw some away a couple of weeks ago too, darn! I'll be digging through my jewelry now to see what I can find. Thanks for the great inspiration Connie!
A beautiful card and I love the clever idea of using the earring!
