Here is my card for this week's free for all challenge where we are to make a card based on something we collect (other than stamping supplies).
When I have free time, if I am not in my stamp room, I am in my beautiful flower garden. I love to shop for pretty flowers and bulbs for my garden and I spend a decent amount of time keeping it looking nice.
The image on my card is a Bugaboo digi freebie and can be found HERE .
I want to say thanks to all of you who left wonderful words of encouragement on my card the other day about the head lice trouble I am dealing with. It is so exhausting and a complete hassle but I think we are starting to turn the corner.
Have a wonderful Friday ladies and enjoy your long weekends.

this is simply stunning! I love the papers you used and the gorgeous ribbon! I have a black thumb, so I can't really grow anything, I bet your garden is gorgeous!

Fabulous colours, and a lovely choice of things to collect. I like flowers for the garden too, though I like the challenge (and cost) of growing from seed. Every year when my little irises that I grew from seed come into flower, it's such a satisfying feeling.
