Are these shoes fab or are they fab?
Whilst looking at these gorgeous shoes and envying anyone who could actually walk in them(!) they reminded me of a stamp I had tucked away which is part of a clear stamp set by Habico called Wedding Images 2. The actual stamp of the man and woman is a negative stamp and it was just the lines of the stamp made me think of the back of the shoes, the bows and heels - what do you think?
Now I know this isn't really a CAS card as I've used my Spellbinders Enchanted Labels dies but thought it all went in a sort of Art Deco way............ the sentiment is stamped using Studio G alphabet stamp set. I embossed the main image using detail black e/p.
Now my great blogging buddy Darnell asked if I would post some photos of the new trellis and archway we've just been putting up so here they are, two new trellis panels joining the rest along the raised bed with a trellised archway at the end. I used to use the raised bed for all my vegetables which I used to show at exhibitions (never would have guessed that one eh? lol). Anyway I don't grow so many now, just enough for the pair of us and decided to make the raised bed into a perennial flower bed and had some climbers so that's the reason for the extra trellis.
View from the back garden showing the trellis dividing the garden from the driveway, garage and sheds at the front. |
Aren't these tree lillies lovely, courgettes under them, lettuce on the bottom left. |
We're getting strange weather here now - after 3 weeks of blazing sunshine the last few days have seen thunder, torrential rain and sunshine - at the moment it looks really threatening outside but it's really warm at the same time. So, good for the garden I suppose.
Thanks for dropping by.
I can see where you are coming from with this stamp - good choice. You have been busy with this challenge. I wish my garden looked as nice as yours - thanks for letting us take a look.
