Papertake Sketch 68

Hi all hope you are well and enjoying this

 wonderful weather. It's been great

to get outside in the garden and tend to the flowers,

 although my backs feeling

it a bit today with all the bending.

Just look at this gorgeous girl in her garden

isn't she so pretty.

I have been on a not buying any more

craft stash until i have used up some of

my extensive range, but had to break it

big time when i saw my teamie Lols card

from the Papertake challenge two weeks ago.

I just fell in love with the stamp and the

wonderful papers so that was it i had to get 

them and this stamp as well.

It's Sketch time this week and what a cracker

it is, great to follow.

We are sponsored by 

Simon Says Stamp.

 I have stamped her onto Bristol Board

and coloured her with my 

Polychromos pencils blended with 

sansodor.

The papers and Stamp are both from

Wild Rose Studio's.

The sentiment stamps are from Lili of the valley.

It's been a while since i have used my Pencils 

i seem to have spates of using one thing then go

onto another. I love the softness the pencils give you.

So why not pop over to 

Papertake have have a go

And now for something completely different

Just look at these fabulous Iris's.

I have had them for years and only one or two would

flower but this year they have multiplied and i had

eight come up and all had two flowers on each stem

they look beautiful.

  

For some reason there is also a rogue

Iris that has just appeared in the clump and it's

Yellow and white. God only knows

where that has come from, but I'm not

complaining.

It's forecast rain tomorrow which i suppose

will be welcome, give everything a good drench.

I might have to get into the garden later

when it's cooled down a bit.

Thanks for stopping by today,

if i don't see you again this week

(cause you never know) i hope

you all have a fabulous 

Bank holiday Jubilee weekend.

Take care.
