I was very excited when I saw that Liberty of London was today's inspiration. I remember spending lots of time in fabric stores as a child and when I spotted Liberty fabrics I was in love! They were so beautiful (and sadly, expensive). When I saw this notebook http://www.liberty.co.uk/fcp/product...ah-Hough/69962 I was inspired to do something garden related and it also tied in with Liberty's collaboration with Target stores a year or so ago. They had garden accessories done up in Liberty prints..gorgeous watering cans, garden gloves, trowels... so that became the theme for my card today. In honor of Liberty fabrics, I added some fabric to the awning part of my card.

What a sweet, fresh and feminine card featruing your gardening theme, Polly. Love the paper doily behind the "flower bed" and the few sparkles for some fowers.

LOL, I couldn't figure out how the pantaloons went with the garden theme...open those eyes girl - there gloves!
It's a nice garden themed card and a great take on your inspiration piece.

These colours are fantastic! I love them! Very clever of you bringing the flowers out through the doily. What a great touch. I almost missed the subtle fence framing. It�s all so perfectly matchy matchy.
