One of my sweetest, dearest, and long time blog friends, Vee, is having a party over at her place today, A Haven for Vee. I think her party idea is brilliant! It is a Note Card Party featuring photos from your personal blog that would make wonderful images on the front of note cards.
Since Spring is in full swing here at the Quill my mind has been turned toward colorful, beautiful, blooming things so I chose Grandmothers Flowers as my note card theme. The images I chose are from various posts of the past and all the flowers featured were grown by my beloved grandmother. Her legacy lives on as each blooming season arrives and her plantings continue to thrive and produce long after her physical touch has ceased to nourish them.
NOTE:
Please feel free to save and print these images if you wish to use them for your own set of note cards. I have removed my copy right mark for printing purposes.
~ Apple Blossoms ~
~ Tiger Lily ~
~ Pink Bush ~
(Sorry, I do not know the name of this one)
~ Dogwood ~
In case you are interested in playing along, it is super simple:
*You simply choose 4 photographs from your own blog that would make a nice set of not cards. They must have appeared on your blog by the time link up.
*Write up your post featuring your chosen photos.
*Link directly to your post on Vee's blog using her linky feature.
*Visit and comment on at least 10 of the participants contributions
*Have fun!
Thank you, Vee, for hosting such a wonderful party. It was tremendous fun looking back through old posts and trying to decide on photos. I think this is such a great idea that I am borrowing it for a Christmas gift idea! I am already choosing sets of photos to have printed up.
I hope each of you have a beauty filled day!

What a beautiful array of spring flower photos, Sandy! I think they all make wonderful cards or this time of the year.
Lovely shots, Sandy. The apple tree is my absolute favorite...but I'm biased, lol...lovely photos worthy of note cards for sure. We owe Vee a lot for this one!

So pretty, Sandy. They certainly form a beautifully coherent group of spring flowers. I love what you said about your grandmother and how much her influence is represented in these blossoms. What a sweet gesture to be willing to give these away for I do believe that I shall take you up on it. Thanks for participating! It would NOT have been the same without you.
Delightful. I was so looking forward to your selections and I am not disappointed. Have a gorgeous day.
Great choices! Perfect for Spring note cards!
You have not only chosen beautiful photos, but also a sweet theme for your note cards. How wonderful to be reminded of your grandmother every time you look at these flowers.
I love your beautiful photos and all the spring time warmth they convey. This was such a fun party! Thanks for sharing.
Such beautiful, beautiful photos...made even more beautiful by your warm words about your grandmother. How sweet to have this connection with a loved one!
These are all beautiful, and the tiger lily is my favorite of all. It's a favorite flower, and you captured it so beautifully.
I love your theme. My favorite is the tiger lily -- it reminds me of my own grandmother.
Beautiful photos! I love Spring!

Beautiful! Flowers just look so friendly don't they? I love the picture of the dogwood flowers. The title of your cards is so nice. I can just see picking up a box of card with the title "Grandmother's Flowers".
Your blog design is so pretty! Love it!
Awesome idea! I think I'll take a peek at those photos.

Your flower photos are lovely! I am especially fond of the dogwood blooms!
Your work is so beautiful, and I love the Tiger Lily. You captured it perfectly.
Happy note cards,
Karen
Those are beautiful. I found that I gravitated to the flowers pics when I was looking for pictures!!
Hi Sandy, I enjoyed your floral card selection. The tiger lily is beautiful and I love apple blossoms. Thanks for visiting me! Blessings, Pamela
Great choices! Thanks for sharing
Beautiful photos...flowers can be so inspiring!
I love apple blossoms and look forward to our tree in the yard blooming each year. Your photos are gorgeous. Thanks for dropping by, Sandy. Deb
Beautiful photos, Sandy, I love all of them. Thanks for stopping by. xo
These would make stunning postcards...love the last one!
ALL of your photos would make *lovely* note cards. But I have to say that your tribute to your grandmother really touched me as I miss mine very much....Red Geraniums remind me of her because she planted them every year for my Papa--they were his favorite.
Thank you for visiting me and for leaving a comment...it's always fund to meet new blog friends. :o)
