so much choice....I hummed and hawed about what I was going to do...
lots of ideas running around my head and suddenly it's Friday and the card still isn't made
 the penny finally dropped...need a card for a friend who is a keen gardener

Phew...thank goodness for that

gift voucher for the Garden Centre
Cardstock: Coredinations.... Latte
scored and sanded to resemble wood panelling

    Oh what a delightful little scene. Just love everything about it, especially because I am such a huge garden lover myself. Your friend will definitely have to frame this, waterproof it, and put it up as a little sign in her garden. Hugs from Desire
