For a gardening friend

Good morning Bloggers. I hope it's not so grey and wet where you are but I am not complaining. The cataclysmic events in Japan make me realise how lucky we are. It just shows us that no matter how clever we think we are, Mother Nature will always win!

I made this for a gardening mad (non crafting) friend, I hope she likes it.
The background is my own photograph taken at Wollaton Hall, Nottingham some years ago.
I couldn't find a suitable image so I googled and found this one and coloured it with copics. Sentiment printed in Word using Annie BTN font. Punches used are SU, Martha Stewart and Leone Em :o)
