Hello sweet friends. Can you believe we are already half way
through May.. Where does the time go. It has been quite warm here,
I just wish spring would stick around a bit longer. But I don't think
that is going to happen. I have already been in the pool a couple of times.
So I guess its time to say goodbye to spring and
Hello to Summer!
But it's not even June yet!!!
I feel like the bad Witch from the Wizard of OZ.
I'm Melting... I'm Melting...
I have had these little paper flowers for so long
I finally used one of them on a card I made for
City Crafters Challenge Blog..
How's that for a segue. hee hee...
Yep, It's Tuesday time for another Challenge.
This week I am hosting and I came up with a sketch..
also for this weeks challenge our sponsor let us use these great
images. I had so much fun with them. Isn't she pretty..
You know I added all the things I love to put on a card.
Like seam binding and stitching and that fun paper flower..
Now this gal knows how to put lipstick on.. Not like the gal from
my last post. Hee Hee..
So here is what my card looks like all finished.. If you
want to see what the sketch looks like or to get the details on this
weeks challenge you can hop on over to
City Crafters Challenge Blog..
If you play along you have a chance to win some
digital images from our sponsor
Well that's all I have for now.. My daughter and Myles are
coming in for a visit.. I pick them up from the airport tonight.
I am so excited. You know what that means.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Hugs, Linda

I can't believe those flowers are that tiny! The photos are great!
Great sketch Linda ... thanks ... Love your card it's just so sweet ... enjoy your time with Myles and his Mommy ... just so you know ... we haven't even gotten to Spring! It's cold and wet with a bit of sun ... not holding out any hope of summer ... perhaps you need to spend some time here ...
Oh, have fun with your DD and Myles, Linda!
Your card is tres chic, so lovely, and I really like the way you photographed the little paper blossoms on their own. So soft and artistic!
Lovely card, and great photos. You want spring to stay? We're still waiting for it to get going, it's freezing here today! Valerie
It's hot here today, as well. Just walked outside to say goodbye to my daughter and grandkids, and couldn't wait to get back inside... beautiful though.
Love your card... so pretty... that image is gorgeous!
Have a great time with your family... take lots of photos of Myles to share.
Hugs!
Linda, You have created such a beautiful card...I think it is gorgeous! and I hear you about spring being gone...oh well, take the good with the bad I say!
Fabulous card, Linda, I love that image, it looks like her skirt is off the page! Great challenge, I will be joining as soon as possible! Have a wonderful time with your two sweet ones, give Myles a high five for me, does he do that yet? Don't get too excited you will miss the rest of your day. It is 64 and wet right now! Can you believe! We will be back to 90 by Saturday!
What a beautiful card !!...love it ....happy day from me...xxx..
And Happy Tuesday it is!! I know how excited you are for your visitors to arrive! Have a blast! This is a very stunning card! Love the elegant feel and that lady is a Wow! Hugs!
A fabulous romantic card. Love all the details on it.
I know right, where did Spring go?
Beautiful, I love your little paper flower and I love what you did with the ballerina image, so sweet!
Have fun with Jessica and Myles! I know you well.
I hear you on the heat!!! Love your latest crafts- & I can't wait to hear about your visitors. That's exciting. Have a lovely evening & visit with them!
Linda your card is so, so pretty, beautiful details and so well made. I do love the image you have used and am so tempted to have a go at the City Crafters Challenge but cards scare me. I am really not confident with them, I think because I need lots of space to create and cards are so small lol. So happy to hear your daughter and Myles are coming for a visit, I can sense your excitement.....have a wonderful time with them. I, my hubby and my older daughter fly to Melbourne Friday to spend the weekend with my younger daughter, so a family get together and I'm excited too. Enjoy your time with your dear ones. xx
Yay for the family visiting!! That is AWESOME!! I loveeeeeeeeeee your card! LOVING the flower and love love love love the ballerina!
Gorgeous Gorgeous Card Linda!!! I really love this... STUNNING... and your photos are always amazingly shot!!! Hope you had a good and great time with DD and DMyles... hugs...xoxo

Your card is GORGEOUS Linda!
Gorgeous card, Linda. Can you send us some sunshine to the U.K. Please. Have a great time with your family. Deb xx
Always love seeing your card creations, Linda! You really have talent.
I agree with you -- how time is flying. Enjoy your visit with your family. xoxo
This card is beautiful Linda, and I love those little flowers.
Here in NY, spring is not sure it really wants to be here. One day beautiful, and the next cold and rainy. I have a feeling there won't be much spring and that we will just hop into summer. At least I hope we'll hop into summer!!
Have a wonderful day my friend!
xo.
This is just gorgeous! I Love every last detail and those paper flowers are amazing!
Such a beautiful, vintage look, gorgeous Linda! Can't wait to see the photos of your gorgeous little boy, bet he's grown! Enjoy your time, Julie.x
So lovely Linda. :-) I really like how you used that Spellbinders tag cut as a frame for your image. Got to see if I can squeeze in a little extra time and play along with your sketch. :-) Hugs!
dear Linda,
Sounds like you had a wonderful mothers day last weekend. Yes Its been hot here too in SC, but lots of rain this week too! Just adore the photos of your little paper flowers and then the gorgeous card. Simply stunning! Thanks for stopping by. take care, gerri
This is so pretty and I love the soft colours....
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful...!!! Spring has left us too, it is supposed to be 90 this weekend...wow!
Hope you are enjoying your special company. This is the first week I've not had company here for almost four weeks. Seems quite strange!
Wow! This is just beautiful! Love the way you used your flower! Fab!
I'm melting over here, too. Enjoy your time with your daughter and Miles. I know you will enjoy every minute! :)
