Good morning everyone and what a beautiful Saturday Autumn morning it is here in New Zealand there isn't a cloud in the sky, too good to be sitting inside at my computer. Easter weekend I was at our beach house and rather than making any cards I decided just to colour some images which I thought I could use at a latter date, depending on the image and it's good practice for me especially using my new Copic's and yes I did make a couple of cards. I'm still trying to get the blending of colours together like I should. This image is one of my very favourite images from Chris Dark at Sketching Stamper. Sweet pea's are one of my very very favourite flowers as my dad always grew them for my mum in the spring and there are so many wonderful colours to choose. Did you know that most of the Sweet pea seeds for Sale in England and Europe are grown here in New Zealand in Gisborne and then exported to England.

I look at the photo and unfortunately the Lilac paper hasn't come out in colour as well as real life, because the Lilac paper and the Gingham paper were a perfect match. I do hope you enjoy these Sweet pea's as much as I do. Take care have a great weekend and many thanks for looking.
