The Greenhouse

Hello to all my crafty pals and a big thank you for all your comments, I enjoyed reading them very much. I am carrying on my man card theme so it is only natural to go from the potting shed to the greenhouse. This looks a little bit like the winter greenhouse next door. I am also intent on using up stash and what better way than to play with some dies. I was bowled over by this barbed wire fence so had to have it. It was a definite need not a want - lol.  I may have got a little carried away with my bird theme. Hope you enjoy visiting as I love to see all your creations.

  1. Another great card Flora. Love the greenhouse. I can see why you wanted the barbed wire fence, it looks as if it would be really useful for lots of different scenes. First time I've seen it.

    I love the dimension you created with your barbed wire fence in the foreground and the roosting birds. Fab greenhouse stamp, and a perfect masculine card.....especially if they love gardening! xx

  7. Flora, what a great man card then again it could be for a keen gardening lady. I don't think you have over done the birds our garden is always full of them. And our greenhouse looks terrible at the moment we can't see through the glass. Take care. Hazel
