Beautiful Blooms of 2010

Here are some photos of our azaleas, dogwoods and my first rose bloom of this year....

The colors that is provided by our Master Painter cannot be duplicated. I have made this first photo my screensaver and it is just so magnificent to see across the screen. Feel free to use it as yours, too!

More Southern Belles, Part 2!

Here is a few more photos from Saturday's Southern Belle, GA Bloggers Retreat.

This is continued from my previous post on this wondrous day.

This is my name tag that I made for the retreat. At first I had no clue how I was going to make a name tag. I am not an artist, do not draw, paint, make jewelry and definitely not a mixed media pro. I only crochet and sew a bit.

Then I found this sweet little girl image and LOVED her immediately...the colors were perfect.

I think you will be seeing her quite a bit more, too;)

Inspired by the colors I crocheted the trim and added the ribbon. I didn't want to attempt gluing and messing up all this work, so I  hand sewed it on the card with pearls. I had already made the rose and it must have been meant for this tag....so there you go. 

 

Just look at all the treasures I received on Saturday!

~Spending Saturday with Southern Belles,Part 1~

This past Saturday was one of those days that you wish would never end....A group of 12 Georgia bloggers got together for our very first Southern Belle Retreat at a cute little restaurant (Pecker's) in Hoschton, GA, which is north of Atlanta.

The day could not have been more perfect~~~ absolutely gorgeous weather, great food and the most amazing, beautiful and very talented women. Most of us were meeting for the very first time but it felt like we had been friends forever...

Thank you so, so very much Yvette (The Charm House) and Sharon (Shardon Exclusives) for making this dream of a day possible. So much time and work went into this and I know we are all so thankful:)
 

Everyone made their name tags and I was just in awe of all the beautiful works of art in just that nametags!
