The Atlanta Botanical Gardens.....


Hi Everyone!! 

My husband and I went to visit the Atlanta Botanical Gardens last weekend.
We had never been there before and with the weather being so nice it was a lovely day to be there!

They were having an Orchid show and some that you could purchase as well.

We strolled through many of the buildings.
The air was so fragrant and fresh it was pure joy to be there!
Many plants were from different parts of the world. We journeyed through Columbia and Africa.
We had a wonderful time and want to come back again when the Roses are blooming!!

Love and Blessings

Susan

Hello Dear Friends.... So I'm here again!...I may just start blogging once more!! I wanted to share with you a simple little collage I made this week. I used a vintage book cover as my base. I love the dark green base for the collage. The little girl is from Paper Whimsy. Since I wanted to make something to herald in springtime...I decided to use some vintage ephemera that I have collected over the years. I used a vintage book page from some nature pages my friend Tina had sent to me from Denmark. The feather I have the little girl holding is from a friend in British Columbia, from one of her birds, who donates his feathers!! LOL......I also used a wee little nest I was gifted in a swap a couple of years ago. The little metal hanger I though was a cute way to hang the collage...On the little label it says "Magical"! Springtime to me is a magical time of year, as nature once again brings forth beautiful flowers, and lush landscapes so pleasing to our soul. A
