NOT ONE OF MY NORMAL CREATIONS

Hi Everyone

Yes, I do believe Summer is here .. .. yippee!!! What a beautiful day.

I have done really well on the card production front today but rather than share the one I am proudest of I decided to share the one I am not sure of.

I like it .. .. .. but will anyone else? I am probably unsure simply because most of my creations feature quite a bit of white .. .. and this one doesn't.

This is what I used to make this "different" creation:

Backing paper distressed with "Tea Dye" Distress Ink
and I then used so many stamps that you will have to try and spot them (especially as the heart is so easy to find LOL!!)
Elusive: "32531" Script Background
Hero Arts: "S5316" Silhouette Grass
Hero Arts: "G4917" Dandelion
Hero Arts: "E2114" Damselfly
Penny Black: "3849E" Birthday Dreams
Silver Pearl Embossing Powder
Turquoise Sparkle Embossing Powder
Cuttlebug Nested Heart
Ribbon, lace, and black pearls from the stash box


Phew!!! I think that might be my longest list yet.

And then just to prove that not all of my garden looks like a field .. .. here are a couple of photographs of some loveliness that can be found within my wilderness at the moment.


Such a shame that the flowers last for such a short period of time .. .. .. and eeeek .. .. .. just look at that fence that needs a coat of whatever you paint fence panels with nowadays .. .. and those are only a few of them!!!!

Well, no gardening or blog hopping for me tonight. Hubby and I are off out for a meal and I need to make myself look respectable. Oh dear .. .. perhaps better start now!!!!

Have a lovely evening everyone and I will catch you again tomorrow.

Love Jules xx

  1. I love your card, Jules. It is more arty than your usual style. I love the script mixed up with the flowers and the colours work beautifully.
    Your clematis is stunning. Ours are just beginning to open. The best way to paint a fence is cover it with plants, then you don't have to bother 'cos you can't see it, well that's my excuse anyway!!
    Enjoy your meal.
