NOTE CARD PARTY: GARDEN GATHERING...

 

Welcome, today I am participating in Vee's Note Card Party for April, this is a new special feature the third Wednesday of each month at A Haven for Vee.  You too can join in the fun by visiting Vee's linky post for all the details.

Since spring has reached it peak here in my little corner of the South.  My family and I have been spending as much time as possible outside before sweet spring turns into summer swelter.  My thoughts have turned to outdoor entertaining and this is the perfect time for a garden party, ladies tea, or get together with my nearest and dearest friends.  With that thought in mind I remembered a post I did sharing some Spring Garden Party Ideas.  I gathered four of my favorite photos from that post to represent note cards I would send out for a spring soiree.

Haughty Lady Hawthorne...

 Demure Miss Green...

Lovely Lady Dogwood...

All three ladies glammed up for the garden party...

I feel inspired to actually print these and use them to invite my two best friends over for  an afternoon in the garden.

Thank you, Vee, for hosting and for being a source of inspiration!

I hope you all have a wonderful day!

NOTE CARD PARTY...

 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.

 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!
