July 1st and look what I have blooming in the garden.
No not the weeds....... the daffodil it doesn't seem to know
we have another 8 weeks of winter yet. Still a joy to see.
Also time to invite you to join us at
As usual our sponsor is Bugaboo stamps and I have chosen
to use Sun Bonnet with candy cane.
She has been coloured with Faber Castell pencils
and is very pastel but I smooched the candy cane added
stickles and 3D medium and some dots of perfect pearls to give her some bling.
Must say I do enjoy looking at all the cards you are making and visiting
your personal blogs.
Now is the time to start making those cards
to avoid the rush in October, November.
Will be entering this in:

Hi Margaret
ReplyDeleteLooks like I'm not the only one showing daffs at this time of year lol!
We're having a heatwave here.
Super card chuck. Reminds me of Holly Hobby. Love it.
Take care.

Hello Margaret, What a lovely bright spot of sunshine you have to enjoy. Such a pretty flower in your garden...I bet it cheers you so much. Loved your Sunbonnet Sue. Very dainty and the pretty background papers are so complimentary to her sweet self. Love the layout you have created and the smooch on the candy cane was a super idea to add some gloss texture. The beautiful rose on your banner always makes me happy when I see it scrolling up! Hope things are settling down to a normal for you and that you are getting into a routine that keeps you busy as you wish to be. Have a great weekend, and if it's cold, hope you're keeping warm. I'm reading about the heat over on a lot of the UK blogs. TFS & Hugs
ReplyDeleteCute, cute, cute! I really like those papers and your fun layout.
ReplyDeleteWonderful papers. Thanks for joining us at CHNS patterned Paper Challenge this month. I saw a wattle starting to bloom the other day as well, counting down the last 8 weeks.
