Flower Friday, a bit early!


Okay, so it's not stamped. I've been busy getting ready for the big weekend coming up and I just won't have time in the morning to create a card as I will be on the road at 9 am.

BUT, imagine my delight this morning when I opened the patio door and our barrel cactus was in full bloom! I have been watching the buds grow and waiting patiently. These flowers only last a day or so before they droop and need to be plucked off. But when they are blooming they are magnificent and the scent, so subtle and yet so very fragrant.

Enjoy your weekend!

I found your blog a few weeks ago and just love your stuff! I hope you don't mind, (because I am sure you have been tagged many times before), but I tagged you as one of my favorites. Hope you'll check out my blog
