FRIEND TO FRIEND

Hi Everyone

Just a quick share today as I am running a little behind schedule  .. ..  still a few things to do before I can flop into relax mode!!

Here is my share of the day:






This used:

Image:  Magnolia "Big Daisy"
Sentiment:  Great Impressions "E411"
Backing Paper:  Aimee Asher
Papermania:  Exquisite Vellum Collection
My Trusty Sewing Machine
Glamour Dust
Ribbon, cord, brads and charm from the Stash Box

So lots of hearts for you to spot tonight!!!

I hope Monday has been kind to you.  We have had lots of sunshine, lots of rain and a strong breeze .. .. so no watering of the crops today .. .. but we are just off to see what needs picking.  The courgettes are coming on well now and we need to keep picking them before they get too big otherwise I won't keep on top of using them!!

OK off to see what there is to harvest and I will hopefully catch up with you later.

Love

    Hi Jules, sounds like you're having a busy day. I've had one too today; it's exhausting watching Dave paint, lol!! I've been cleaning out drawers and cupboards and filling up the recycling bin nicely!

    Such a beautiful card you've made today. Love the fresh, pretty colours. Gorgeous stamp too. xx

    What a beautiful card! So soft and feminine. Love the ribbon, the charm and the sparkle on the flower. I must confess I’d never heard of courgettes and had to look them up, we call them zucchini here. How do these things get such different names? Hope you have a nice harvest.
    Blessings Bernie

    Wow; soft pastels and dripping with elegance. I love the flower. The coloring is stunning; you really have outdone yourself.That charm is a lovely addition; love that silver trim too!

    We hardly had sun but loads of rain....

    What a gorgeous flower, Jules and I love all the hearts, especially the little filigree one.
    It's been the same here today, we had a really wet afternoon although when I mentioned this to Hubby who works about 9 miles away, he said "What rain? We haven't had any rain" Strange how weather can be so local, either that or he'd dosed off!!!!
    Your crops sound delicious.
    Hugs Lisax

    By the way, if you do have a courgette glut, then this is the best recipe for soup I've ever tried http://foodurchin.blogspot.com/2011/07/courgette-soup-and-marrow-rum.html and it uses loads of them too!
