Morning everyone, this week at Allsorts Sarah is challenging us to use dies on our creations, for those of you who really don't have any then there's always the A/G option. June prizes come from Sizzix, AALL and Create, Aldridge Crafts, Lavinia and Ruth Hamilton Design.
Eye progressing, but screen time still limited so grateful for the better weather (some days) to sit in the garden where I took a few photos making this post a tad picture heavy.
Both my DT shares feature dies from Highlight TRR using some older releases, above a wreath shape created with three circle die cuts placed onto an embossed base panel and the Poppies and Wheat arranged around it plus a couple of Squirrels. Below a simple design, die cut flowers again, layering dies to build up the design and a die cut sentiment and envie to match.
Dies play a huge part in our crafting so I hope you will share some of yours with us this week.
As promised photos starting with our brilliant display of Digitalis,
Spot the distant onlookers
And the tiniest baby bunny making it's way in the big wide World
Those Labs get everywhere

Two stunning cards Brenda and fantastic pictures of your beautiful garden. I love the photo of the foxgloves. I used to have them in my garden but they seem to have vanished the last few years.

I am glad to hear you are making progress with your eyes and your garden is just stunning. At least we had sun today, it has been cloudy and cool all week here. Everything is very dry again now so roll on some rain, Love your cards especially the second one, very clever use of those dies xx
Un post meraviglioso, cara Brenda!! Innanzitutto per le ottime notizie sul tuo occhio e sul bel tempo, così che puoi gioire della natura e stare lontana più facilmente dallo schermo :) Le tue foto riempiono di gioia anche me, che stupende fioriture!!! E quel minuscolo coniglietto è delizioso!! Spero che la sua mamma sia lì vicino e non si sia avventurato troppo da solo. Nella stessa foto vedo anche che hai una bella serra! :)
Come puoi immaginare adoro le tue due cards con i fiori di TRR... sono uno spettacolo!! Li hai arrangiati così bene per comporre la ghirlanda con le spighe di grano e la seconda card è dolcissima e favolosa come dice il sentiment!! Adoro quei fiori!!!
Qui fa molto caldo, l'Estate è già arrivata! Ci sono molti turisti e le persone vanno già alla spiaggia.
Un grande abbraccio!
Good to hear your eyes are progressing!
Lovely cards, and thanks for sharing pictures of your garden!

Wonderful die cuts Brenda and I thought it must be about time for the tour of your beautiful garden. It's looking particularly gorgeous this year and the photo bombers always make mme smile!! xx
So many beautiful colors in your environment! It's like you live in a park & fun seeing the labs & the tiny bunny! I love wreaths, but the 2nd card is really catching my attention with it's fun design!
Beautiful card and what a wonderful garden you have! Love looking at those florals & shrubs, such serene surrounding.
Both cards look so pretty with all those flowers, but your garden is just heavenly and I'd be sitting there enjoying all that beauty every day if I could! Oh my, I'm so impressed with all those beautiful flowers. I'm just loving all that gorgeous wisteria along with that precious little bunny! Your labs are beautiful too. Take good care of your eyes after that surgery, I'm glad you've seen improvement. Enjoy your garden!
