I will post some piccies next week but cant get on the grass yet. Its a new challenge over at the CES Challenge blog today and this week Vicky has chosen the theme

Prima Papers, Flowers, various Punches and Dies, Stickles, Viva Pearl Pens and the Sentiment is Wild Rose Studio. Alot of these products are available in Crafty Emmas's Store. Do check out what my lovely teamies have made this week, gorgeous cards as always.
