Getting your chicks in a row

Are you like me?  Do you sit sometimes and say...well I don't have an Easter set :(  Although this is sometimes the perfect excuse to get a new set sometimes you just need to think about what sets you do have.  As you can tell from my header I love the set Best of Everything.  Here I have made the card very spring like just by picking a particular color palate.  And I'll take any excuse to use our new baker's twine.  This card is a wisteria wonder base with a layer of the in color DSP.  I wrapped three colors of the bakers twine and then stamped the bird image in daffodil delight, calypso coral and lucky limeade.  The image is on whisper white and punched with the 1 1/4" circle punch then mounted on matching card stock punched by the 1 3/8" circle punch.  I added a small flower and a pearl to each.  The Happy Easter comes from the Teeny Tiny Wishes set punched with the word window twice.
Now what is that in front of the card...that's my new key chain made with the twitterpated fabric.  The idea and tutorial for it come from my latest obsession  interest...Pinterest.  If you haven't tried it you'll love it.  Here is the link to that tutorial.  I can't wait to make this with the new fabric Stampin' Up! is releasing soon.
