Hi Everyone, my card was made as a thank you for these wonderful hyacinths I received from my SiL, for helping her on a simple thing. I certainly didn't think I deserved them, but with their perfume and beauty I accepted gracefully :) Aren't they beautiful? The little bag was packed with them.
I had a hyacinth stamp and hadn't used it, surprise surprise! and I thought it would be perfect for this occasion. The trouble is, I sent the card before taking a piccie of it, so I made a few others with a changed sentiment. No piccie which means I can't remember what I did, except I know I added a stamp to the base of the hyacinth, so here's the second take so to speak. I even did "splatters", now you must be proud of me? another first!

Beautiful. Happy Sunday
Proud of you for being Faith, but the stamping and splattering are pretty impressive too! Lucky you to receive the bag of hyacinths - they are beautiful and smell heavenly and are one of my favourite flowers. Enjoy them, Vicky x

Beautiful card Faith. Lovely stamp and the heart is a nice touch...as are the splatters. Gorgeous bouquet from your SIL. xx
Beautiful flowers from your SIL & such a lovely card! I love splatters & yours are fabulous!
It must smell wonderful in the room you have your flowers. I love hyacinths.
Wonderful card and beautiful splatter in the background.
Well don on a cas card, Faith.
How gorgeous this is, Faith! I love how you added the tea cup to the hyacinth! I love hyacinths--I can't recall a sweeter scent. Unfortunately, the bunnies around my yard like them, too, so they always seem to win the battle! I guess that is why I love daffodils so much! No critters seem to want to have them for brunch!! hahahahaha
Good for you for trying new things! I'm usually stuck in the same old routine!
You deserve everything and more Auntie Faith! They look lovely xxxx
A really pretty card Faith, the stamp is lovely as are the gorgeous flowers. I love the smell of hyacinths xx
a lovely, lovely card, faith! the hyacinths your sister gave you are so pretty!
Some sister-in-law's deserve being appreciated - you are obviously a special one.x
Those flowers are incredibly beautiful and their perfume is delightful! Lucky you! Lucky her to receive such a beautiful card with the image of those hyacinth!
Gorgeous flowers, and a beautiful card! :o)
The card is as fab as the real flowers, Faith, and I love that you did a birthday card! I never have enough of those in my stash. :-D
