Yes, Sharon!
June 22nd, 2007
Sharon Harnist asked me in the comments on a recent post if that was a ‘real’ water lily. YES! A few months back I showed you a dreary, bleak picture of my water garden after a long, hard winter. Man is it ever a sight when the lilies decide to wake up for the summer! The water you see on the leaves is from the gentle splashes of our fountain. Soon, the surrounding flowers will be in full bloom, and I’ll give you a full view. For now, thought I’d give you a snippet of the bliss I enjoy all summer long.
Speaking of Sharon, I have 2 pieces of Happy Mail that I have been hanging onto for a few weeks. They are 2 of the prettiest cards. Definately Happy Mail day when these beauties arrived:
This beauty showcases the PaperTrey Green Thumb set. The soft, even sponging on the edges, the shimmer and shine, the faux stitching…all Sharon Harnist trademarks. Gorgeous!!
This cute little thing was a challenge card that Sharon completed when I sent her the purple DCWV cardstock and the stamped Anna’s Bird images. She, Beate, Angel, Jenn and I had a wonderful time coming up with something, and this was such a surprise in my mailbox.
Thank you for thinking of my Sharon! I love my cards!

[…] from the Lizzie Anne Designs Far East set is perfect for me! I have a watergarden that blooms the prettiest lilies in June. Right now it looks more like THIS. I had to laugh when I read that linked post from March 2007. […]

[…] About this time each spring, we start getting a lot of rich color on our water garden. This weekend, I spied the first waterlily of the summer. Since I’m not going to skim the pond this morning to take a picture, you can look at last year’s bloom here. […]
