Journal 52-- Mary's secret Garden


We are up to Week 9, at Journal 52. This weeks prompt was  Colour swatch inspiration.
We could choose 3 colours to work with.
For me this was shades of Blue, Peach and Cream.
I chose to call this page Mary's secret garden because all my journalling was the names of flowers that I would love to have growing in my garden. I do have a few of them, including a few that some gardeners would call weeds. These are  the  wild flowers and  just as pretty as they encourage the butterflies to visit.

Thank you for stopping by, the comments you leave are very much appreciated..

  5. Oh I do love your woven background! The mere thought of flowers is enough to make me smile at the moment...I'll be seeing the hellebore again today when I head down the mountain road to visit Bill and then I will be going down to collect him next Friday :-).
