grows over time
and
lasts for eternity"

WOYWW 99

Here I am home after 3 fabulous weeks spent in a very hot and sunny France. We have a house there so the beginning and the end were spent tidying the garden - not such a chore when you are surrounded by beautiful countryside and the weather is wonderful.

We were also lucky enough to have some time in our camper where I was in 7th heaven using some new stamps that hadn't been inked before and taking my time to sit and colour or paint. 
I even met a lovely South African lady who I introduced to Promarkers !!! She said she'd have to buy some as soon as she got home.

Mother's Day Card

Just had to use this lovely Hedgie by Penny Black for my MIL's Mother's Day card.


 








She's layered up and her dress is cut from some Japanese papers I have, and has been coloured with Promarkers.
The ribbon was from a gift set I had at Christmas so I can enter the Penny Black Saturday Challenge whose theme is recycling.
