Summer in the garden


It's time for my midway post for
where the theme is anything goes option summer garden.

I hope you get time to join us as the prizes are definitely
worth it!!

For my card today I stamped the image and then used the matching
stencils from a set called Enduring Beauty, to add colour and depth.
I chopped the finished image in half and filled
the gap with a piece of white card which I stamped
using Lisa Horton Crafts stamp called Sending you Sunshine.
I matted it onto a piece of paper from Country Woods set
and finished with some enamel hearts.
It was still looking a bit bare so I stamped, punched
and coloured the butterflies and stuck in place.
I then added some enamel pearls to the flowers.

I would like to enter this into
Color Dare - choose 3 colours (blue, green, yellow)

I have had a busy week as we had a visitor staying with us
so hope to catch up on my blogging today!!
Thanks so much for leaving your lovely comments.
