another week starts

 Had a lovely weekend sorting things and have got rid of a lot of things I did not need,  some of the drawer I just did not know what was in them till I opened them Lol  so most of it is in bags ready for the charity shop, Feel so much better now. 

I have been trying to buy a Blue rose and have brought one for the past two years and this week they came out and guess what neither is blue, have to say though they are lovely roses and the red one has a lovely perfume so that's a bonus Lol

  2. I find it quite cathartic to de-clutter periodically too ... sadly, those emptied spaces quickly fill again - if I let them!

    Lovely pix too, not a big fan of roses on a personal level but these are beautiful specimens, you must look after them well.

    LOVING your "delusional" card, the border goes well with the foliage and your line of Christmas cottages are so festive and twinkly

    Happy Monday

  9. Your roses are lovely, but it is indeed difficult to get a truly blue rose. I can't remember if soil pH has anything to do with it...as it does with hydrangeas. But you might look into it.

    On to your beautiful cards....love the monochrome look you used on them both. I am loving the glitter on your Christmas card!

    Thanks for joining us at Addicted to Stamps - "Christmas Comes Early" challenge!
