Life begins the day...

Life begins the day you start a garden. That is the quote on the front of this card...so maybe it's not exactly true...But many of my earliest happy childhood memories are of me playing in our backyard garden. It was a great start in life...

  2. Jill, your card is beautiful.

    There is something so special about a garden. I feel 'renewed' when I am standing in one.

  7. Hello Jill,
    Your cards are lovely as usual. I would love to go to Longwood Gardens someday. My husband was there when he was younger, said I would love it.

    Thanks for visiting me and sharing
