Lily Of The Valley Card

Hello & thanks for stopping by my blog today.

 It's a lovely Saturday here in Battersea London. Me & hubby was up bright and early & decided to go to Morden Halls (that's one of the places he likes to buy his fish). There is a nice garden centre there too & Morden Halls is set in natural beauty.
We got there early & went for a stroll in the grounds. Here we found a farmer's market & craft stalls. We ended up spending some pennies! would be rude not to!! Lol
Our only regret is that we never took Rusty, our Jack Russel, still we know for next time.

 I have a card to show you today that I made for our receptionist at the Nursery where I work. I had made a candle a while back & thought this would make a perfect gift for her but just needed the matching card. 
Before I show you this I must alert you about some MEGA CANDY up for grabs.
Donna @ Bearly Mine Crafts has this.... pop on over & enter HERE .... It's open to all WORLDWIDE & you have until 30th November.

 Now on to my card ........
