This image colored up quite quickly, so it made for quick card, I just added a sentiment. I don't usually make square cards but doing so made it even faster, no need to figure out what papers to use or what to do for the background, just clean and simple.
PowerPoppy - Cuppa Buttercups digi stamp, colored w/markers
BoBunny - Sentiment stamp
I would also like to add this to the Flower Challenge blog anything goes challenge
and Sisterhood of Crafters Ladies/girls challenge
Now for those of you that came for the pictures of Garvan Gardens in Arkansas
I was just talking to my sister about the trip last night on the phone and I mentioned to her that I had a bit of a problem while walking through, I started feeling quite sick, dizzy and nausea and thankful not to much farther was this pretty area where I could sit and take a break and recover, thankfully so that I could finish the gardens.
This last picture is of the half way point through the garden, such a beautiful spot to sit and enjoy. I will share more of the gardens in later posts, I have a lot to do today so I will stop here.
Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today and I hope you enjoy a lovely weekend!

What a pretty card -- your coloring is so lovely!
I also love the photos of the gardens! I'm so anxious for some warmer temps so I can be outside digging in the dirt and planting flowers.
I like the colors you chose for your cup of flowers, Connie! You're so right about how easy it is to just color and not worry about adding a lot to the design. So nice sometimes. I need to take a trip out to our local botanical garden and see what's in bloom. This is just so lovely! Odd how you started to feel sick and then I'm assuming the feeling passed. At least I hope so. Such a lovely place to stroll around and enjoy a beautiful day. Thank you!
the flowers are so pretty connie, gorgeous colors and light!!! i can't wait to see my daffodils, they are quite big now, reaching for the sun!!!
the thank you card is so pretty!!!
That cup of flowers is so pretty! And well colored! I have always liked that stamp but haven’t purchased it yet. I love your photos of the garden. That is providential that there was such a nice spot for you to rest.
Very nice card. Lovely colouring. It's funny how you started to feel bad on your walk. You sure took beautiful pictures. Its not spring in Ontario Canada yet
What breathtaking garden photos, Connie! I love the spring flowers and the river - both are full of life. And your lovely PP card is FABULOUS, matching the spring theme of your blog post beautifully! Your coloring is so delicate, right down to the tiny leaves and flower centers. hugs, de

HI Connie! Your card is beautiful! I miss stamping and card making. Thank you for sharing your pictures...the flowers are just breath taking, especially the tulips.
Thank you for keeping me & Hubby in your prayers. It has been really tough lately.

A garden filled with pretty Tulips was the perfect place to rest and catch your breath. How lovely to sit among all that beauty. Your card is sweet. A pretty jug of pretty flowers....the perfect smile to Spring.
