Hi Everyone
I hope you have had a lovely Monday. Our weather has been gorgeous today. So lovely to be able to have the windows open and smell those freshly cut lawns.
A little late tonight as we have been to the dentist for a check up this evening. I can remember the days when I used to dread going for fear of what they might want to do .. .. now I just worry about how much it will cost "if they do" want to do something!!!! Thankfully I got away with just a clean and polish .. .. phew!! That means I can save my pennies for the car service, MOT and tax that are all due later this month!! Boo hoo!!!!
Here is my share for today .. using one of my favourite Penny Black images. Great for so many occasions.
This used:
Image: Penny Black "3347H" Duckling
Sentiment: Computer Generated using font "Zipty Do"
Backing Papers: Pink Petticoat "Pinstripes"
Nestabilities: Classic Circle and Scalloped Circle
Josy Rose: Nail Heads
ProMarkers
Ribbon from my stash box

| Here are those four tomatoes I was telling you about yesterday |
 |
| A burst of colour from my chives .. .. might make this my computer wallpaper for a while. I just love the colours. |
 |
| But the best colour was the clear bright blue sky we were treated to this morning. How gorgeous is this .. .. not a cloud in the sky!! |
Catch you soon!!
Love

Gorgeous card, Jules. I am pleased you managed to enjoy a few moments in the garden too. Chive flowers are so pretty, aren't they? shame the scent isn't a bit more flowery! Your tomatoes are looking great, and I love the blue sky too
Your card is gorgeous,love the image,fab colours.....I have enjoyed every moment of that lovely blue sky today.We don't ask for much really do we.xxx
As always, it's a lovely card, a real cute little ducky! Sunshine n clouds here today but I spent time in the garden planting my tubs(fingers crossed we get no more frosts) got most of my June tag done but still needs a few touches before posting....it's not as simple as this duck :-)

Love that pink and white stripe paper with the yellow in the sweet duck! And baby tomatoes are looking good. That's one of my favorite things about summer is tomatoes! The chives are beautiful. My mother had some in her garden. I'd forgotten about them until I saw this picture. I love it when something triggers a good memory! Thanks, Jules.
A beautiful card Jules, love that cute stamp and the colours are so pretty. Great photos, been lovely here all weekend too. Hope you have a good week. Carol x

Hi Jules, the colour of that sky is wonderful, and I always think how lovely chive flowers look. Well done with the tomatoes, bet they taste glorious, better than shop bought ones.

Morning Jules! Yes isn't it lovely to see the sun and be able to get out and admire our lovely flowers and blue skies, just like in your super photos. I totally agree about the dentist - and the cost nowadays!! Love your card, this is such a cute image, have a great day, Carole Z X
Gorgeous card Jules, love that Penny Black image and the fab striped paper.
Your garden looks beautiful with the sun shining and the sky is a stunning blue :)
Have a good day.
Hugs Sally xxxx
Hi Jules, There look like 5 tomatoes there, I love the colour of chive flowers as well - that sky looks like a colour swatch and we had one of those yesterday as well wasn't it lovely to see. I can't bring myself to use the ribbon yet - too pretty!! Have a lovely day, we are expecting more of the yellow and blue stuff. Pauline xx
soooo cute.
luv
Debby

Glad your dental appointment went well Jules!
PB Ducky is adorable, especially with flowers! Love the pink paper and sentiment too!
ooh your tomatoes are growing great! and love those gorgeous purple chive flowers! Beautiful shade and colour combination!
Glad you're having great weather and clear skies! Enjoy it xoxo
Who'd have thought that that a plain blue image would look so good. Your chives are well ahead of mine - but they are in a spot that doesn't get the sun till late in the day.
Super card - I do love that image too.
Beryl xx
Absolutely PERFECT card Jules.
My chives look just like yours . . . I planted a clump in the front garden just for decorative purposes as they are SO pretty. I only USE the back garden ones though!
Thanks for the blue sky picture too.

Aww I can see why you love this image Jules… it's very sweet! and yes it would be perfect for many occasions… I love the stripey paper and the pretty bow and nailheads are perfect embellies! :-)
Ooh I know what you mean about the dentist… and I nearly always need a filling!! but even a scale and polish is expensive…. and after paying out…I always think of all the crafting stuff I could have bought with that money!!! LOL
I love your photos…those chive flowers are very pretty and yes it's lovely to have some blue sky! :-)
Hope you're having a good week!
Love Sue xx
so gorgeous jules.fab paper and I love your hot pink colours and cute image :D

Such an adorable card with that fantastic stripey paper background for showcasing the sweet duck in a circle. Another design delight, Jules!
And thank you for sharing your brilliant blue sky (now that's appreciation!), your toms, and the sensational colors of the chive! That photo definitely needs to be your wallpaper!
Good luck with the wedding doings!! xxoo Darnell
