Gosh we have had a very wet few weeks but between the showers the sun has shone and today has been lovely on and off. I took these photos of my flowers this morning as the drops of rain in the sunshine looked so pretty.
Some of the flower petals are a bit rain battered but I am sure they will be fine.
My little photo bomber.
Billy enjoyed getting out in the garden today too.
My tiny lawn has really greened up and needs a cut, but that will need to wait until it's a bit drier.
My card today is one I have made for an Alice in Wonderland challenge on Facebook. It features an old discontinued Visible Image sentiment, which I still love, which I cut up into 3 parts. I teamed up with their fab Cheshire cat. I was inspired by all the fresh colour in the garden and got out my alcohol inks to make a bold background on glossy card stock. I continued the bold colour theme by giving the cat yellow glossy accent eyes too.
I would also like to enter my card into the following challenges;

I have been very busy for the last few weeks making samples for Visible Image with the new stamps and also for Stamper's Grove.
To give a little heads up in advance I am delighted to tell you that I will be demonstrating again for Stampers Grove, this time at the Stamperama show in Newbury, at the race course on SUNDAY 7 JULY.
Please spread the word and if you plan to come I would be thrilled if you stopped by the Stampers Grove stand and said hi!
I will have some sneak peeks and more info/photos nearer the time.
Have a lovely, hopefully dry Friday tomorrow and weekend and thanks so much for stopping by today.
Back on Monday with another sample from the new Visible Image release..this time it will be my take on the really amazing Guardian Angel set.
Bye for now,

It's been endlessly wet lately for me too. Let's hope we both dry out in the sunshine and can enjoy the flowers and bees. Fun card :)
