Flower Power



Good morning, it's Saturday which means time for a new challenge at Allsorts and this week Tracy would like to see flowers for her 'Flower Power' theme. Our sponsor this week is our very own Jo and her store Lets Create.

My card is made using the new Triplets from Tattered Lace which featured on C&C earlier this month. My card is also over at the Tattered Lace blog where I have written up all the details so please do pop over there is you would like to know more about my card and products used.

The Christmas Trio's was launched by Nancy on Create and Craft last evening and there are more live shows today. Added to that I am also working with new Christmas Stamp Addict stamps due for release in a couple of weeks so one way and another rather up to my ears in Christmas and what has been keeping me rather quiet recently.

 Happy weekend all.

Popping back to say thanks for the kind comments on the teeny garden post. IT is so hard to imagine those sparse looking beds bursting with blooms, but I do know how quickly perennials grow.
That was such a hard post to release as this is our smallest house ever,,,and our teensiest garden ever!!! I am so crippled with my arthritis at the moment that the wee garden is a blessing DH would rather be golfing or fishing so he is happy with the extra freed up now to do so. Thought I would mention that I never use those steep back wooden stairs down from the deck. To access the back garden, I use the stairs inside the house that luckily are made in an L shape with room for a chair where the L turns...makes the stairclimbing easier. Then out through the patio door and i am in the back garden.
If I get any worse, we will put a lift inside the house...bungalow style houses (ranchers) are rare here, are usually very tiny and often in run down neighbourhoods. So it was stairs and lifts for our choices.

Hard to believe a horse ranchers daughter would live on such a teensy lot! lol

PS Little Miss C has been taking riding lessons each week and is just starting to jump...exciting days ahead!

Jo Channon said...

Well several have put this but I am too WOW! love it such a gorgeous design and loving the Trio's! x

Desire Fourie said...

Absolutely gorgeous Brenda. Adore the silhouette face in the background and those flowers are delish.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend.
