Creekside - I missed the crocuses (as we know them - truly should be called pasqua flowers) this year at the farm. Only a few were still flowering when we visited on the weekend. However I am equally intrigued by these lovely critters that come after the flowers. This big imp sometimes wonders what it would be like to live always amidst nature. Hmmm.
"Imp wonders"

Botanicals: a most wonderful theme this week for Artwords. I love everything about botanicals and I love the vintage aspect of the word.

For this piece I've used tea stained paper on card stock. I've applied an image from an old book and added words of my own composition. The hand made paper pieces are from a collection I made a number of years ago. They have dried herbs and flowers from my own garden added. I just made the shipping tags with some herb seeds I had leftover.

And the words, in case you hadn't realized, are really about this:

"the most difficult part

standing back

watching her grow"

Angels be with you.
