Potting Shed To The Rescue...

Hi folks...it's my turn to post over at the Craftwork Cards Blog today and I'm sharing a gift I made for the man in your life who loves gardening... made with one of my favourite paper collections...The Potting Shed. Did you know that gardening comes 3rd on the list of favourite male pastimes...no prizes for guessing the other two and then I had one of those rather woohoo lightbulb moments...the usual dilemma of what to get the male members of your family for Christmas...I suspect they all enjoy pottering around in the garden so I'm sure they would be delighted to receive their very own calendar to hang in their "Potting Shed" rather than the usual annual cop-out of SOCKS...


Why not make a matching gift bag and pop in a gift voucher from the local garden centre and hey presto...one Christmas present ticked off the list.
I've also made a "Potting Shed" Garden Journal but it needs a few finishing touches so I'll be sharing it with you on Monday...in the meantime enjoy your weekend whatever you've got planned and I'll see you all tomorrow for this month's Ribbon Girls Colour Challenge.
