FLOSSIE
Thank you so much, Marie, for my Flossie. It was exciting to have been picked as the lucky winner in your One Heart One World giveaway.
As you can see, she arrived none the worse for wear--despite her long trip across the ocean. These pictures were taken in her new home. Does she look like a happy camper or what? For sure she brings smiles to my face.
Your whimsical little card brought a smile to my face too, and I only wish the picture I took could have done it more justice. It fails to capture all those extra little details like the sparkles and raised border. I hope you don't mind my adding the link to your etsy shop to this post so my bloggie friends can check it out.

SOMETIMES MY EYES DECEIVE ME
Every year when spring rolls around, I look forward to feasting my eyes on the beautiful purple blossoms of the Red Bud trees and wish they didn't have to turn green so fast.
I've also wondered why a tree with purple flowers would be called a Red bud. Well this year, as I roamed around with digital camera in hand, I discoverd some things I had never noticed before.
Before these trees start to bloom, they are covered with buds that are, indeed, red. And not all Red Bud leaves turn green.
The leaves of the Forest Pansy Redbud in my parking lot turn dark red.
And now I'm beginning to think my eyes have deceived me and those lovely flowers I always thought were purple are actually a shade of pink.
Who would have thought!

JUST CAN"T STOP POINTING AND CLICKING
Lord bless the person who invented digital cameras that enable me to take zillions of pictures without having to waste a ton of money on film in the process.

A FEW MORE TOUCHES AND VOILA
Trying to capture some of the awesome beauty of spring. Is God's creation a masterpiece or what?
