july morning


Using that same upside down flower idea, I made a birthday card.

"Out of the tree of life I just picked me a plum.
You came along and everything started to hum.
Still, it's a real good bet, the best is yet to come."
by SHANNON GREENE / TERRY TODD

I just love how the top 2 leaves make a natural collar

The hydrangeas are blooming with a vengeance

the shrub of many stalks is about to take over the garden

moving in for the attack

I love the green blossoms

even greener prior to blooming

glorious spring green, the colour we are trimming our house in

here's a hint of it around the basement window (more pictures to come)
This is where I sit in late afternoon to read a book. I've got 4 on the go right now.

across the little deck I have this rescued chair with its visiting potted flowers for company

I was surprised to find the miniature wild roses blooming.
 I found them by following their saturated rosy scent.

on the screen a startling red visitor

a mixed media spread I started last night, not quite finished

a detail of the queen

are you stopping to smell the roses?
