Inspired By Nature

Hello and good morning.... I hope your week is going well?

The AAA Card Challenge this week is "Inspired by Nature"


Here's my card


Like many of you, we've had our fair share of rain and the alcohol ink background here is to reflect that together with the lush greenery and the colours that are beginning to grace my garden


Fortunately we've had good weather these past few days which means the workmen can get on with the landscaping work on one half of my garden


But hey! This is the UK and anything can happen where the weather is concerned so I'm baking to keep them happy whilst they work Lol!

I'm hoping to catch up with you all today and can't wait to see what you've been creating

Have a beautiful day

~ Ros ~

  4. Your background certainly does remind me of a rain soaked garden. We're expecting thunder storms today, which is unusual for our area. The UK and the Oregon coast have a lot in common when it comes to the weather! Pretty dies, beautifully placed, and an utterly gorgeous background!

  7. As you say, this is the UK ...here we had unexpectedly warm and sunny weather yesterday. Some people were straight into their strappy vests, but I'll not be 'casting a clout till May is out'.

    I love the shape of the die-cut panel - it shows off the inked background beautifully and you can't go wrong with glitter.
