Hello!! It is a rainy, hot morning here in Illinois. Since I couldn't be out in my garden, I decided to bring the garden inside! Actually, I was trying to think of an idea to go with the JUGS color challenge this week that is navy, green, orange and cream. I was stuck until I remembered this great garden set I got from Stampin' UP several years ago! I think it's a perfect fit, if I do say so myself! I had lots of fun going on the internet to see what the flowers for each herb looked like. I know, sounds crazy, but I really enjoyed myself and learned about the herbs along the way.I hope your day is filled with beautiful gardens and sunshine!

Anne, great job with the coloring. I, too, go to the internet for photographs so that I can color with a little realism:-) I love the way you incorporate the JUGS colors into this card. really fabulous job. Also.... the sentiment is perfect - I never seem to have enough "thyme" either :-)

Way cool Anne - love that you researched your plants and herbs! I love your new blog look - quite stylish and very fun. Way to go!!! Thanks for coloring along with JUGS this week.
Oh, I remember this set! I never owned it, but always loved it! I love the thought of gardening, but I'm not very good at it! Wish I was! Your card is lovely, and I love the way you used the JUGs colors! Thanks so much for playing with Just Us Girls!
