Pink poppy

I am thrilled with this blossom. It reminds me of a petticoat. I don't recall planting this beauty, but sure am happy she grew here! These girls were happy to have a shower this morning. The iris stand about 3 foot tall. More flower pics here http://good-times.webshots.com/album/558596185HCcGRp

My garden is truly my inspiration. Not only the flowers, but the creatures that come to visit. It is my focus day and night. It has been rewarding for my husband and myself. My dogs know the spelling of garden and can't wait to hang with me. It has lightened the hearts of many a passer by. Not a day goes by that someone doesn't stop to have a gander.

I have started my first page and it is a flower.....of course. I am doing 4 x 6 pages. I am using one of my photos. I have painted the fabric, I used muslin and backed it with interfacing. My bead pallet is in it's first round...lol. I am getting a few other small beading projects done this week and hope to put the thread in the needle by the week end.

Have a great day

Wow....I never thought I would be posting on my own blog. I have been reading many of those who have committed to the Bead Journal Project. I feel very honored to be among such great artist! Thank you Robin for allowing so many to join you on the wonderful journey.

I own a business and work from my home, a walk across the drive way. It allows me to enjoy to the fullest my gardening and my art studio. I am an avid photographer of the flowers in my garden. Here is one I took yesterday...

Have a great day
