This assemblage was made 2 years ago for a submission for a nature theme at Somerset. It did not get published but I think it is one of my favorites. I love using my dried flowers and stuff from the garden(yes, I save broken pots, they make good bases).

So this is a repeat from last year. I hope it makes you smile!

I bought a new print, you will love it!!!!

I discovered Artist Julie Fillo on my blog list!!!! I was following her cause I enjoyed her blog. Then I discovered her Etsy Shop! Most of you know how I love flowers, well, I had to have this charming print of 1 of her original paintings.

I love to support fellow artists and thought you might enjoy seeing her art also. I have the links listed below. And actually this goes along very nicely with Pink Saturday!!!

One powerful hour/ flowers

I went back to my photos of pages I have done for other artists tip ins and Altered book round robins. I often use flowers. These were done 2 years ago and I think they are favorites of mine. First of all, I love "the Little Flower", St. Theresa. Some how to me, she is a friendly saint.

Second, it has my blue flowers I love.

Forget-me-nots are the dearest little gift from nature! If you plant them, they reseed and keep coming back!!!!!!!!!

Nothing to do, but wait!!!!

Thanks for the floral theme!

Have a great weekend!
