a card for my Uncle..

my dear old uncle Mark is 96 this week and has had to go into a home down in Bournemouth to be looked after after several falls....the thing he misses most he says is his garden and flowers so my card is themed to cheer him up a bit .....

I have used the tattered lace blue hydrangea die and decoupaged up the flowers, a few nuvo drops and some matting and layering ....a pretty floral card that I hope will brighten the day....
Its a beautiful sunny day here in North Yorkshire and what am I up to ....washing....those chores never seem to do themselves do they..
.I hope you are enjoying your day whatever the weather ....and thanks for popping by my blog....
