Flowers

Good morning and welcome to my blog on this beautiful Autumn morning here in New Zealand.

Today I have two cards I made for

Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 

this fortnight, I do hope you have to time to come and

join us with this fortnights challenge #156.

Here is another aspect of the two cards I made.  One with handmade die cut flowers, the others are purchased flowers for from my stash. 

Here is this fortnights sketch.

Sketch # 156

We are happy for you to change the oval to a circle if you wish.

Our prize this fortnight has been donated, Anne. 

Spring Flower Stamps 

isn't that appropriate as Spring has officially Sprung officially in the Northern Hemisphere.

That's sad that means is going to be getting colder and darker in the coming months in New Zealand.  

Don't forget to check out what the rest of the design team members have created this fortnight using this sketch over at
