PINK BLOSSOM AND COLOUR ME WEEKLY

During a lull between storms last week, we decided to visit Hilliers Arboretum.   As the sun tried to weakly shine through the clouds I managed to photograph this lovely branch of blossom - I quite like the way the sun is highlighting the petals from behind.

TAG TUESDAY AND SPRING FLOWERS

For Tag Tuesday this week I've taken inspiration from the beautiful blossom that is absolutely everywhere I look at the moment.

This is one of my favourites - I  love the oversized stamens!  Reaching into the depths of my memory I think it's called Blackthorn.

I made the tags using images from photos I took earlier this week.  I   threaded beads onto wires to make the exaggerated stamens, and added washi tape!
