This morning I have a little card to share which I made for the Play Date Cafe challenge ... This is the inspiration photo .....
A beautiful Lupin all fresh and dewy ... the colours are bold and striking, which for some reason gave me a little trouble - maybe I find soft colours easier .. anyway this is my card ....
My image is a digital Hero Arts image - Vintage Skyland Birds ...
It is ironic that I am posting these lilac and purple colours as I have just discovered that last nights storm took out my beautiful fragrant lilac bush. It was just about to bloom and having only been planted late last year, as a tiny little thing ... it survived a bitter winter of snow and ice. I looked at it only yesterday with admiration and the kind of pride a mother gets to see her child flourish ... I love all living things and to see something you have nurtured thrive is a joy ... right now I am so sad .....
Till soon
