Merry and Bright

Lyn from Lyn's Designs sent me a few images (thank you very much Lyn!)  and I coloured this one with the Copics and made it into a Christmas card. My mojo has gone into hiding and I am just fiddling around, cleaning up and sorting, tidying away some things and getting out others I had forgotten I had - case in point the lace on this card! However, I did make this card - Nestabilities, Cuttlebug, embossing and all......


The sentiment is from Stamp It and the mounting is from DCWV's Citrus Matstock - yummy sparkly stuff! Some SU red card and Annabelle sparkles - think that's it!

My garden always looks its best in Spring, and this year I have orchids as well! I divided them up two years ago and repotted them all, and then ignored them - this year I have thirteen spikes! See?






My DH has a lime tree in a pot and these are all just outside the door of the craft space.  The Rhododendron was given to us by our son and his wife, and is doing OK  - it is a bit deeper in colour than the photo allows.  The mock orange is just smothered and John as grown these blue things from a small plant so he is very proud of them - they look good against the white and the ferns.

Hi Susan

Love your garden - it looks so beautiful. I'm in North Wales and we're well into autumn now - which has it's own beauty, but I do love to see spring flowers!!

Regards, Deborah
