Hello!
Summer is paying us a final visit before Autumn settles in and it is very welcome...
I have two birthday cards to share, the first one went to a friend in Scotland and the second one is going across the pond to a blog friend.
I used a new stencil here by Lavinia but the flowers I drew and painted
Though you can't see it on my photos, the flowers are very sparkly - I went over them with a glitter gel pen
Whilst I still had those paint colours wet I did the second card with 'blobs' and doodled over them
Both cards have embossed sentiments but again not easy to see.
My previous doodled flowers here won me a $25 voucher at Simonsays Stamp... Thank you Diane for the heads up and thank you to SSS! Of course the postage for goods to the UK is $15.99 but nevertheless it was an honour to be spotlighted.
Okay, so as soon as the guy who has come to clean the gutters today is finished, I'm going to join my Gingerboy in the garden and relax.
Thanks so much for your visit... If only it was IRL
Take care
~ Ros ~

2 beauties Ros (I mean the cards not you and me....)
Ventured out to the gardens at Dunham Massey today - still last signs of Summer but Autumn deffo on the way - may share pics in my next blog post - had to book and it was lovely to just be outside with few people around. Hope all OK down the motorway. xx
Well don't you just hate it when the sparkles evade the camera? Regardless, this card sure is stunning!
Absolutely love these Ros...I have loved all your cards that you have done these past few months. You are so very talented...I know I have said it before but it is true! Hugs xx
Wow Ros, just love today's flowers, and the Lavinia stencil is one that has caught my eye too and love the strip of vellum underneath the circular flower layer, and then the wonderful blobs turned into perfectly formed flowers, and amazing how you managed to make the flower shapes fit the blobs. I love the colours you've used too. These will be loved by their recipients. x
So Lovely!!! - you'd laugh to see my scribbled with sketches & love notes . . . I look at yours . . 🙂 . . and am amazed.
Thank you So Much for sharing.
You have found your way with blobs and doodles, Ros! Beautifully! and sure to be loved!

[congrats on your win!]
Both cards are absolutely BEAUTIFUL and I'm sure breath taking in person! Congrats on your win at SSS! Thanks so much for always inspiring me! I just wish I could 'draw' like you do ... would save me a pile of $$$ on stamps/ink & dies! LOL HUGS & Enjoy your day!
I would love to be sitting in your garden with you and Gingerboy, Ros! Love, love, love your flowers! I love the beautiful colors you used in both cards and the doodled flowers are amazing! Congratulations on your win!
Two beautiful birthday cards, Ros!! Congrats on your win to SSS for your gorgeous flower card! I see these cards have lovely flowers, too! You are so talented! I'm sure the recipients of these cards will be thrilled!!
Yes, indeed--wish I was visiting you in your garden, my friend! Wonderful cards, Ros, but the second one is truly stunning! Your talent is just amazing to me & now I see 2 of the SSS Monday designers thought so, too! Huge congrats on the spotlight & the win! I'm sending you an email.
Beautiful cards in your favorite colors which are always stunning!! Congrats to you on your win, and a double win at that, so deserving too!! Would love to see pictures of your Gingerboy in your garden, we have a cold front today but next week is to be nice again, so will be outside doing more garden cleanup, never ending!!
Both cards are gorgeous Ros, in no way should they be called blobs. such works of art :)
Wow ....both cards are stunning Ros x. Fantastic doodling on the second and a wonderful design layout on the first x. Congratulations with the shout out too Ros x.
Again, such a beautiful combination of stencil, stamp, and your own doodles and paints. When your cards scroll up on the screen my eyes get very happy! Congratulations on your win, Ros. Darn shipping charges.
Both cards are beauuuutiful, Ros! Love the color combinations, and your blobs-and-doodling technique!

I am Thrilled my dear sweet creative girl friend!!! Your 2nd very creative and beautiful hand painted flowers and leaves over the "blobs" of paint made it in time today for my 75th birthday tomorrow and without a scratch:-) I can't thank you enough for your work of art, Ros! I now have 2 of your hand painted works of art that I will always treasure. I loved your added sequins and gold shiny painted leaves for a bit of shine and the pretty font on the sentiment. My twin sister, Margie is coming over tomorrow to craft with me, have a fresh from our garden veggie dinner, homemade Norwegian Blueberry cake and wine and evening of chatting with Denny and I and then a sleep over:-) She will have her own space in our travel trailer and we will be distancing, which is not a problem. Wish you could join us:-) Thank you again, my friend. Love and Hugs...Nancy
What beautiful cards you created here Ros - the blues are beautiful and your sketched over 'blobs' of ink are just incredible! Love that stencil on the first one as well!
lovely cards!!!
Oh my, when I read how you created these flowers, I was in awe. Gorgeous cards and I see that Nancy loved it. Wow...
Two gorgeous cards Ros! LOVE the sweet flowers with the bold stenciled background. Fabulous design and love those colours together.
Well, I wish I could paint blobs like yours Ros. Gorgeous flowers. Again, love the colour combo with some gold to shine. Very special cards for two very special people. xx
Popping back to say no wonder Nancy loved her hand created card, as it is truly stunning x.
Ha, congratulations on the win with the other doodled flowers. It is a most gorgeous card. And these ones are, too - love the colors you used!
BOTH are STUNNING!
Love you card for Nancy Ros an exquisite design and I love just love your doodling!
Both your birthday cards are beautiful, Ros, but I agree with SSS that your card for Nancy is extraordinary and definitely a winner! I was just thinking "where did she get those awesome flowers stamps" when I read how you created this art. I'm in awe, again. I'm sure I've said this before, but I'll say again that anyone affiliated with any stamp company will offer you a job designing stamps after seeing this! Or you should start your own company with hubby and son! :) Hugs, Darnell
Well Ros, I just have to say I agree with everyone else... your cards are simply wonderful and your artwork is amazing... blobs into flowers, like Darnell, I thought they were stamps... just beautiful with 'your colours' - Nancy was thrilled, hugs and stay safe Robyn
