This is my post at the Dies R Us inspiration blog today.
Make sure and scroll down to see
a few more pictures of my Spring garden flowers!
Flowers make me so happy, do they you?
I love buying new ones, as when I drive I can see
them waving at me from the back seat...
I know they are "happy" to be coming home with me..LOL!!
Hello and Happy Thursday to you!!
My card today is called "Happy Colors".
I named it that as the colors just make me "HAPPY"!
I cut a Cheery Lynn Designs Pinwheel Doily from white card stock.
It comes with an "angel wing"...
but I didn't use it this time.
If you are not sure what an angel wing is,
it's a "solid" cut of the doily to place underneath.
I stenciled Memory Box Florina stencil with Persimmon chalk ink.
Then I placed a circle die on using
Memory Box Open Studio Stitched Circle Layers.
The flower was made with Sue Wilson Finishing Touches Open Petals.
The paper is Ken Oliver Watercolored Memories Paper.
I finished with a few flying butterflies and a stamped sentiment!
Make sure and visit the blog Monday thru Friday to see all the
inspiration the DT offers..it is fabulous!

A few flowers I took on Memorial Day.
My newest Iris I purchased last year called
Avalon Sunset.
I was so excited to see it in bloom this year!
A bit of front garden.
This used to be a shade garden
until a storm took the tree down!
I had to dig up a massive amount of shade plants and move them!
One of my many, many poppies.
My garden helper Kitty Witty.
Okay, that's it for today...
