Mouse With Big Balloon


Hello and welcome to my blog.  I promised one of my followers that I would post a photo of my Wisteria once it was in flower over our bridge on our pond.  I love this look from my kitchen window, the water lilies aren't flowering yet.   Unfortunately, the Wisteria is only in flower for such a short time and then we have beautiful greenery all summer.  




Here's another view of my card using this month's sponsor which is Bugaboo Stamps.  The image I used was Mouse With  Big Balloon.

 

Sketch #171
Here's another of my sketches I do hope you like it.

We've also brought back a very old sketch from the past, you have the choice of either or sketch or even use both.

Fuchsias



Good morning and welcome to my blog.  I'm sitting here this morning thanking mother nature that spring is here.
Last weekend I looked out of my kitchen window at my flowering Cherry Tree thinking it will be in flower soon.
I didn't take a lot of notice of it in the last couple of days and this is what it was like this morning.  Now I know that summer is just around the corner.

This week over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 we have a new sponsor which is 
Andrea from Sheepski Designs
