I'm one that usually has a hard time improvising, so I pretty much follow the original. These are some pics of our flower gardens. I used to have huge flower and veggie gardens but have had to cut back. Now my husband has become the main gardener. I am so grateful he is willing to do this since I would miss the flowers!
The journaling; I am so thankful that Roy is willing to do the gardening. I love my flowers but am not able to do much of the outside work anymore.
The decorative elements are from the 'Fall is in the Air' Kit from Template Dreams. The flowers have been recolored.

Happy Birthday To You
Today's card features an image from Whoopsie Daisie. She's colored with Prismacolor pencils, all in pink. The image has been added with pop dots. There's a doily trimmed in gold, twine colored with some sparkly 'Blush' Creative Inspirations Paint, a little lace, and a few sparkly rhinestones. All to wish some special young lady a very "Happy Birthday".
Now I just wish someone would tell me why we thought we needed to leave Texas with temps in the 70's and come back home to temps in the 20's! {{shiver, shiver}}
