Strawberry Fields For Ever

"Strawberries one of my very favourite fruits"

I do think it's their smell it's just so beautiful

Good morning and welcome to another wonderful Wednesday.  It's so warm here today that I've noticed our Spring Bulds coming through, it's Autumn here and we haven't had winter yet!!!

  Wednesday can only mean one thing it's Sweet Sketch Wednesday and we're counting down now to the big century #100.

On the 4th May 2011 Sweet Sketch Wednesday will be celebrating our 100th sketch.  Each sketch has been designed by our own very talented Arlana Patten so I do hope you can join us to celebrate the occasion .

This week we have another wonderful sketch to work with sketch #97 and our sponsor this week is Clear Dollar Stamps.  I picked Strawberries not only are they my favourite fruit, I adore the smell and I couldn't resist colouring these images.  I think they turned out lovely and my son said "Mum they look good enough to eat"  he thought I had mounted a photo on my card.  That was such a lovely complement from a 9 year old boy.

Sketch #97

Oh where Oh where has this last week gone, here we are in the first week of April already and we have just finished daylight savings which means it's lighter in the mornings and darker here at night.  That can only mean one thing winter is upon us but our weather is still very warm.   Liam finishes school on Friday his first term at Boarding School has gone already.  He has 3 weeks school holidays and his brother has 2 so it will be nice to spend so quality time together.

Today is Wednesday and that means it's
