Midwife

 Hi Everyone, I'm having trouble with the 'puter, so getting things together is a little fractious on occasions. Anyhow, my card today is one I made for our GNiece who has gained great results and can now go on to her Midwifery training in a London Hospital, we are all so proud of her. It's something she has wanted to be since a little girl.  The image is one I have had for many, many years, one in waiting I guess LOL. I print and cut it on the Cameo (so much easier) and layered 3 images, making texture and easier to post.

I thought I would share our front drive garden with you 


and the view I get from my craft room. 


After our beautiful Acer was cut down we were left with a part of the trunk, too much for hubby to dig up with large roots, age does that doesn't it? Anyway we were out in a garden centre, when we were able to get out after lockdown, when we saw a pot that looked like it was made with grey slate, which we loved. We filled it with plants, can't remember the name and as it's raining a LOT! so I won't go and check the name! I'll edit the post and let you know. We placed it on top of the trunk and hubby made it safe somehow and I think it now looks like a large mushroom, I love it and the plants are so pretty. They'll hang down when grown  bigger.

  11. That is so awesome about your GNiece Faith! Your card for her is so adorable, I love it! The image just can't get any cuter and is perfect for her. Love the "bunny hospital" on the scale. Makes an adorable skinny card. Wow, your gardens look so beautiful along the drive Faith! Wish my house looked like that! lol Love the view you have from your craft room too. Yes, age does take it's toll and sometimes you don't have to be to old when it does take it's toll! I love how you guys dressed up the stump, that pot is just beautiful and it goes so well with the stump, making it indeed look like a mushroom! The flowers are so pretty and I imagine they will get even more beautiful as they grow to hang downward. Love it! Hugs, Brenda

  21. Oh, such a precious card for someone heading off to midwifery! Perfect colors, Faith. Your side garden is wonderful and it was so very clever to use the tree stump as the base for a planter. Do share more photos when the plants get larger and flow down toward the ground. :-D
