So, this is just a simple one that I did real quick after work today after seeing Cathy's garden challenge.
the reality is I have planted one of these 3 times and each time they have not come back up in the spring so, its one of those things that I smiled to see there was a stamp for it now. (I think it gets too cold here in the winter) The flowers, stems and leaves were stamped with distress oxide inks and colored with pencils. then I used the soft sky with some water on the background and added the blue DOX over that in puddles for texture. Thanks for this challenge Cathy & tfl.

Oh, Stacy! this is one of my favorite flowers. I had a really nice big bunch of them in my garden before we moved. I tried to dig them up and move them but the had grown in between roots of the tree too much and I was afraid I would kill them trying to get them out.
Super gorgeous BG with these beautifully colored flowers!

Gorgeous card, Stacy, love your bg and these beautiful agapanthus flowers! They grow prolifically here where I live and are just lovely when they are in bloom. I have many in my backyard~
