Hi All! Just a quickie post from me - the sun is shining and I need to tackle some of my weeds... though my neighbour's garden is a total wilderness so mine always looks not too bad in comparison ;) Our weather has been a bit bonkers all week with mad showers and hail, but I'm hoping to finally get our winter coats away at last, fingers crossed!

Star of the show at the minute is my lovely rhododendron which is absolutely beautiful when the sun shines on it, though the blooms don't last very long and it's getting a bit big for the spot it's in
What a sweet card Lynne, love that little indian brave, great colours and I would leave it just as it is!! That really is a fine specimen of a rhododendron. I just cannot grow them but remember as a kid going to rhododendron mile near Bournemouth and driving through hedges of them...must go back again some day. Hope you are doing okay Lynne xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet image! Your card is adorable, Lynne! And...oh my goodness! Your flowers are stunning! What a vibrant, beautiful color of bloom! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet, fun card, Lynne. I always love a bit of Nelly Snellen. Your rhoddy is a beauty - what a fab colour, Jo x
ReplyDeleteSuper card Lynne, what a cute little Indian. Thanks for sharing the photo of your fabulous rhododendron. We planted one in the garden last year and hopefully it will be as beautiful as yours one day. xx
ReplyDeleteSweet card. It looks great as it is--leaves and all! I always second guess my own designs, thinking I should have done something different on almost every card. Your rhododendron looks amazing! My son lives in the northwest part of the U.S., and rhododendrons grow in abundance there. His weather is much like yours - quite cool and wet during the winter months, but lots of sunshine (without extreme heat) in the summer. In fact, I wouldn't mind living in his part of the country.
ReplyDeleteI sure am glad that you had time for weeding AND making this adorable card! She is a cutie! Thanks so much for joining us at Inspired By!
ReplyDeleteSuper cute image and a gorgeous card. Thanks for playing at AAA Birthday, hope to see you join in with future challenges too. Stay safe and keep crafting!
ReplyDeleteHello again, Lynne! You've done a brilliant job of filling the circle from our Sketch this week!
ReplyDeleteYour little Maiden is adorable - with or without the greenery, but I like it! Gosh you've done a bang up job coloring her! You've celebrated someone's birthday, and I love it!
Thanks for playing cards with us at IB!!

What a lovely card Lynne. Love the little bits of sparkle on the little girl. So glad you joined us in our celebration this month at AAA Birthday.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute card! The stamped image you used is adorable and I love how you've coloured her, amazing job! Thanks so much for celebrating with us at AAA Birthday!
ReplyDeleteThis is one very pretty card Lynne loving that image and the colours a fab design, the weather here is like Winter, rain, wind and it feels so cold, the flowers are getting knocked about so much and can't get out on the garden, the Rhododendron looks beautiful
