So I spent some time lounging in the sun (very good for the bones with osteoporosis - with plenty of sun protection cream because I'm naturally fair skinned). And every now and again I had a little crafting session in the summerhouse. Well, if I'm honest, you could hardly call it crafting, as I was putting together some cards, gift cards etc that came with a Lisa Bearnson box of goodies. I'm still hoping to have a sale of cards for TEAR Fund in September and I know that this year I can't sit at the cardmaking as much as I used to, so, in order to get a number done I resorted to using the Lisa Bearnson box.
So there's no cards to show because I didn't really create them, just put them together. But I thought I'd show a few pictures of the garden and where I was crafting:
This is the view from tthe patio, just outside he door of my craft room, looking up the garden, with the summerhouse in the distance:
And this is my little summerhouse:
Our garden is mainly planted with shrubs, but we have some lovely rose bushes blooming atm:
One day soon I'll show some pictures of my craft room (wouldn't want to do it now because it's not tidy enough) - although it was done a few weeks ago, I'm still moving things around, finding places, sorting etc Acquired a 12 x 12 stack of trays the other day, so at least my papers are sorted.
Great pictures Hazel, what a lovely garden! :)
ReplyDeletehi hazel you have a beautiful gardan... thanx for stopping by blendedcolors... oh and craft rooms dont have to be tidy... then that means you havent been creating if its all cleaned up right? :)
