It's mid month inspiration time at We Love Stamping and Stamping Sensations where we are focusing on Birds, Bees and Flowers at SS and Flowers at WLS, with prizes from Personal Impressions and Lavinia.
Both makes from a few weeks ago, above using TH Stampers Anonymous French Garden, a stencilled base layer, berries from the same set as Daisies, a torn page from an old book sprayed with Oxides. The flowers stamped, coloured and cut out and popped into A&C boots and some faux grass. Lots of snippets so popping to the new challenge at the Playground. I don't have a photo of my snippets so ready for a spell on the naughty step.
What is probably my favourite Lavina Fairy Zemira, I say Fairy but she doesn't actually have wings. An inky background and distant fantasy town stencilled and masked sun. Zemira is releasing her Flutterbies accompanies by Jaylar and the scene built up with Bluebells, Leaf Spray, Fairy Buttercups and Vine Flourish. Four Seasons challenge theme is Anything Summer and that big sun suggests it's definitely Summer on my scene which follows on nicely for the Create a Scene theme at Cards 4 Galz.
As mentioned Saturday, due in hospital for a couple of days but that's at the back of my mind with Holly so poorly and dreading the vet this morning.

Beautiful cards for a timely mid-month reminder for the two stamping challenges
Wow. - both cards are stunners. I love Zemira too - but have yet to add her to my collection!
Wishing you luck for the week ahead. Xxx
Two beauties, Brenda - love the second one with the fantasy town in the background, but the gorgeous flowers in the boots on the first are exquisite.
I hear your heartbreak over Holly... all the best for the vets visit, and also your procedure(s) in hospital too.

Fabulous cards Brenda, love those pretty flowers growing in the wellies, and I love the tranquil scene you created with Zemira, she is a beauty and I must add her to the collection.

Your imagination is amazing. I love your boot card best, gorgeous and that fake grass is delightful. CarolG
WOW! What stunning card, I love the wellies and flowers on the superb background, a gorgeous card. The Lavinia card is spectacular with the amazing way you put all the images and stencilling together, so very beautiful. x
Hope that the news was good for Holly this morning!
The boots card is a fun and playful one, but as always I'm drawn to the Lavinia one; beautiful! And I love that background! Sending some positive energy your way... Hugs, Gerrina

Gorgeous cards, Brenda, and I particularly love the textures on the first card - beautifully done! I hope Holly is doing better, and your hospital stay goes well.
Take care.

So hard to have another furbaby not doing well. My heart is with you. Hope things go well with your hospital stay. Wonderful makes! The background of the second one is absolutely amazing and wonderful and Zemira is gorgeous!
Your creativity absolutely shines in both of these enchanting scenes. The boot overflowing with blooms and snippets feels like a whimsical garden stroll—so clever to use the A&C boots as vessels for your florals, and the torn book page adds such nostalgic texture. Zemira’s magical moment is pure storytelling in ink—the masked sun and fluttering companions create a dreamy summer atmosphere, and that stenciled town in the distance adds depth and mystery. You’ve woven fantasy and florals with such finesse, and your attention to detail makes each piece feel alive. Sending gentle thoughts for Holly and strength for your hospital stay.
Two absolutely stunning cards Brenda, hope all went well x
Two wonderful cards, Brenda! Love your Lavinia stamping style!
Hugs,
Conny
I love the rain boots and the summer flowers in them. I love to garden, so it speaks to me. And nice fairies in your Lavinia piece too. It's very dreamy. Good luck with the hospital visit, and I hope by the time you read this the hospital is behind you for good. hugs-Erika
You've made two beautiful stamped cards. You've created lovely depth in them, too. The card with the fairies, in particular, has something magical about it.
I hope you're feeling a bit better now. Stay strong.
Crafty hugs, Astrid.
