A digi from Dora and a walk in the woods

A couple of years ago Dora drew this digi (Flower 7) from one of my photos, after a walk to look at the bluebells in Ploughman's Wood.  We had a lovely walk there again on Friday and so I thought I would use this digi for my DT card for her this month. I printed the digi onto Kraft and coloured it with my Arteza pencils. I'm quite happy with how it turned out. I teamed it up with some crafty individuals paper and then stencilled the base card with distress inks through a Bee Crafty D'inkable. The sentiment is from Hobby Art, and I added a few drops of liquid pearls. You can find Dora's digis here.
Here are a few of the photos I took in Ploughman's Wood on Friday, featuring the beautiful Wood Anemones, including a few pink ones. 



And of course a few bluebells too...





Beautiful nature, beautiful weather and the signs of spring definitely put a spring in my step! 
Thanks for looking!

Another walk in Ploughman's wood

Warning, Photo heavy post! Are you sitting comfortably? Ploughman's Wood is a Wildlife Trusts nature reserve a couple of miles from our house. We sometimes go there just for an hour and a short walk. I know there are Bluebells there, so we made our way with my camera. Here are a few of my photos
 The blackthorn was beautiful on the walk from the road...
 There was a carpet of bluebells as soon as we entered the wood.
 There were also wood anemones in both white...
 and various shades of pink
 We were accompanied by the song of robins, great tits and chiffchaffs.
 We also heard green and spotted woodpeckers
 In some places the wood anemones looked like snow!



 We also saw cowslips,
 primroses...
 and lots of Greater Stitchwort
 I hope you enjoyed joining us on our little walk.
Thanks for looking!
