Hello everyone,
It is a beautiful sunny winter's day here today and I plan to get out and enjoy it but before I do I want to share some pastel beauty with you. I was playing with my pictures in Picasa last night and I made these pastel matted pictures that I wanted to share with you.
I want to thank Becky at
One Shabby Old House for featuring our garden on her blog yesterday. I was very touched by all her kind words and I am happy to have made so many new friends through blogging.Thank you so much Becky! I am sure many of you know Becky and her husband are fixing up a beautiful gingerbread trimmed Victorian cottage in Alabama to run as a romantic B and B and I love everything they have done to it! I hope you have a minute to go and check it out.They are working on the gardens next and I look forward to seeing what they do- wish I was there to dig in the dirt too!
Once again I am joining in for Show off Saturday at
http://maleviksrosentradgard.blogspot.com/-there is lots of beauty there and a great place to find lovely new blogs.
Well, I am off for a long walk in the sunshine now so I will see you later.
I hope you have a wonderful weekend,
Carolyn

Dear Carolyn, I "ALWAYS" enjoy dropping by your blog, and your photos never leave me disappointed. Today's are spectacular and I love the matting, you've inspired me to go out to Picasa. :) I'm sure all these lovely flowers have come from your gardens over the years. You are blessed my friend! May your weekend give you the sunshine & rest you are longing for. ~Ciao - ~CC
Carolyn these photos are frame worthy!! Stunning to say the least!!
I love your pink depression glass. I have one bowl that is green glass.
Have a wonderful weekend!
Stay warm!

Those pastel matted prints are lovely!!! You picked just the right borders to accent the colors in the photos themselves :) :) Have a lovely weekend. Love and hugs from Oregon, Heather :)
How beautiful are your pastels...
So stunning images! Pastels colors are my fave, of course...
Darling Carolyn, could you please tell me the name of the first (second pic) and second rose (third pic). I'd like so much to plant them in my garden...
Thank you a lot!
Have a nice day

Hello Carolyn,
I´m so happy that you wrote a comment on my blog because that made me find your wonderful blog!
You seem to have a beautiful home and I love all your photos.
The ones with pastel makes me really happy, we need colour this time of year!

Your pictures are just beautiful. What a great album to look at on a gray,dark,damp day we are experiencing here in the Northwest.
I always enjoy reading your beautiful blog. I will take a minute to visit your friend in Alabama.
The pictures are great. The one with the purple phlox really caught my attention.
the pink rose with the pale green tipped petals ... so soft and incredibly beautiful. I LOVE you gorgeous banner, by the way!
So pretty. There aren't words to describe the loveliness in your photos and the joy they give. All I can say is thank you.
Cindy
Toutes ces photos sont vraiment ravissantes, la composition en bleu ... magnifique et tout le reste aussi ! Kiss
Darling Carolyn, thank you a lot! You're so lovely to answer so quickly and so kindly to me.
May be (I cross my fingers...) soon I'll have finally to create my little garden: your will be a dreamy inspitarion!
Have a nice day

Carolyn, Truly amazing that your photos could be even more beautiful but the matted look is really stunning.
Carolyn, Without a doubt your blog is the most beautiful one I have ever seen.I think that you have soo much talent to put together all your treasures. It is most comforting to me to see these. Some of the china pieces I have & it strikes a beat within heart. Thankyou fellow Maritimer for your awsome blog. Blessings.Dianne.
Carolyn, each and every photo is gorgeous. I wouldn't be able to choose a favorite.♥
I really was my pleasure Carolyn, If you lived closer to me believe me I would bring all of my friends to see your amazing home and garden. Beauty is to be shared and I can only thank you over and over for all that you have shared with us. I certainly wish that you could come dig in the dirt with me too!
So where do you go when you want garden inspiration? Hugs
Becky
