NEW COMPUTER and MISCELLANEOUS

Been working on getting my new computer set up.  My girls came Sunday afternoon and helped get it up and running.  Maybe it will get better,  but I don't care for Windows 7.  Would like to have XP back. as I continue to search by trial and error! :>(

Going to try to upload some photos we transferred over if I can find them:

ALPINE MIST 

ANTIQUE ROSE

 ARIEL ROSE

 BECKY LYNN

BLACK EYE 

CHICAGO KNOBBY 

 WILDA

WIND FRILLS 

Keeping with the pink/rose/lavender theme here is a couple of cards I made quite some time ago.  I haven't done much scrapping/stamping this Spring.  Now that Summer is here and too hot to do much outside will get back to it.



Have had a few ripe tomatoes on my Sun Sugar plant.  Fun to go by while checking the flowers each morning and pop a few in my mouth.  Early Goliath has one tomato that will be ripe in a few days.  Still doing some weeding and mulching in the mornings while it is still cool.  Was thinking about watering the tomatoes but hate to start.  We have had an inch of rain--1/2" Friday and a 1/2" Tuesday so will wait awhile. Some really pretty daylily blooms, probably at peak bloom now, but the foliage on some of the plants look really rough. Combining and haying is done for the year so DH can relax and rest for awhile.

Be back later with some more photos.

I don't know which is more beautiful...the flowers or the cards! Both are just lovely.

Bev, I thought you were getting some rain. Good. We got 1/2 inch after I had watered most of the day! Always the way.

I love the different shades of pinks and lavenders. I may try to expand my color wheel. I worry that mine will all end up peachy.

I had another larger bloom on Indian Giver! I gave that bed a good soaking.

The pink cards go with this flowers perfectly!

Glad you had the girls to help; I had our son. I agree; I am not crazy about 7 either....but I don't like change of any kind......

Your garden must be a sight to see when the daylilies are in bloom! So gorgeous! Your cards are so lovely and feminine, too. Still hoping for more than two nice days in a row. Somehow the flowers are blooming and when the sun comes out it looks so pretty!

Your flowers are gorgeous, Bev, and popping a few tomatoes in your mouth while in the garden sounds like pure joy!!!! Gardens down here are mostly burned up by now!! Your cards are lovely, too...beautiful stamps, colors, and designs!!!

Beautiful day lillies Bev! what wonderful colors on them - I just have the basic orange ones in my garden - and your two cards coordinate with them so well!

Those daylilies are yummy! I'll bet you have the most gorgeous bouquets on your tables all the time. :) And I LOVE those pink and green cards you made! So girly, so feminine. That bird/postage stamp is really catching my eye. It's SU, right?
