Spotlight Saturday!

Spring Has Sprung is the challenge that this week is running at the blog....
And what a stunning creations the team made! I love them so much....

And today it's almost summer here in the Netherlands... it's so sunny and warm at my balcony..
it's almost to hard to stay in all day. So I went up early to do some crafting and will be sitting outside for some sun. 
(tomorrow it will rain again)

How is the weather in your country... I know that we have a lot of girls following us from all over the world.. How is the weather in your country?

I talked about my village and that it has the biggest flower garden of Europe...
Well on request here are some photo's fromt that large garden..
Photos of the park  
 

And at the end of April we have a parade of wagons with theme's that are build up with flowers!
My DD and her scouting group make such a car each year! 
Then my village is filled with tourist from all over the world to see this...
And the fields around my village are filled with spring flowers. So I live in fantastic smells when we ride through the fields...

  

Now to get back to the Challenge... We so hope that you will join us this week....

  2. GORGEOUS cards, everyone! And Marion - really, those pics are just breath-taking! My weather - ha! We woke up to a few inches of fresh snow yesterday here in Massachusetts - quite depressing. It should all melt today and tomorrow, though, as the temps should reach 50. Keep your fingers crossed for me. :)
