poppys

The color of these poppys is great and since they are California’s state flower that is a plus since I have lived most of my life in California.
However, these poppys were growing in Sequim Washington and I have has been waiting to find a good reason to use this picture in a card.
This is a get better card so here are the Stampin UP words of Curvey Verses combined with the OH So Lovely flowers.

raspberry
I love raspberries, they are my favorite fruit. In July when I go to Sequim Washington, I make sure I go to Greymarsh berry farm and pick raspberries. I think i put more in my stomach than in my basket and even so it so much less than buying them in a southern California grocery store. Last time I picked i also took pictures. and now am able to make tasty cards.

Lavender

I Couldn’t decide what this would be for so it can make into a thank-you, thinking of you or birthday when I choose. Don’t know where I got the stamp but I’ve seen them in several stores.
Gentle thoughts daisy 1
The color on this is not true the card and background are white. This is one of my picture cards but it has two stamps the ‘gentle thoughts’ title and the flower and butterflies.
3 roses
This is may favorite card but it has no stamping just a cuttlebug envelope thanks. It reminds me of my grandmother since her name was Rose.
Purple Haze 2
When I go to the Sequim Washington Lavender Festival and usually volunteer at Purple Haze Lavendar farm. The white tent in the picture is where we sell badges for entrance to the Festival. The lavender is all around and the Gift shop is the tall building in the back. The gift shop is great with the best lavender dressing.
purple haze 1

Every year I go to the Lavender Festival in Sequim Washington. My sister Caron and my favorite farm is Purple Haze here is my first card form picture taken there.
In case you’re interested the Lavender Festival is an opportunity to tour several lavender farms and see all things lavender. Its pick your own lavender, sample food with lavender as an ingredient and make lavender crafts. One can also brush up on everything lavender; how many varieties there are, how to grow it, how to distill it if you want to make your own perfume or soap…. The purple fields and a sight to behold. Its a great middle of July trip!
