April Note Cards

For Vee's Note Card Party this month, I'm sharing some pictures that I took at Dallas Blooms at the Dallas Arboretum.  The Arboretum is a wonderful spot to visit and enjoy the beauty and the outdoors.

 Beautiful tulips with cherry blossom trees in the background.

 This stunning peacock was the star of the show with her flowery skirt trailing behind her!

 This just looks like Spring time, doesn't it?


I couldn't leave without one foodie picture and a Happy Easter to all!  Can you spot the Hello Kitty egg?  Recipe for the peanut butter eggs are found here. 

I am sharing this with:
A Haven for Vee

  3. Oh my, those flowers are simply lovely and that Peacock is a work of art and beauty :) Thank you for sharing some Spring with us...we still don't have flowers here so it's nice to see them elsewhere. Love and hugs to you!

  4. Oh Kitty, these note cards have really put a smile on my face this morning. They're wonderful!! That peacock topiary is a.ma.zing. Wow! I love the way they did his tail in shades of "peacock" blue and yellow. I love all the tulips (one of my favorite flowers), pansies, and flowering trees as well. The last note card is just charming -- I love the bunny with the carrot planter, the cabbage tea pot, and your pretty flowered china. Yes, I can spot the Hello Kitty egg. :-D I'm going to check out the recipe for the eggs now!

    Big Hugs To You!

  5. I did spot that cute "Hello Kitty" egg! Also, I love your teapot with that adorable bunny on top. You made me smile today!! Love the photos of the arboretum - gorgeous! Why can't my yard look like that? Oh, I guess it is because it is a "yard" and not a garden - lol!!

  12. I enjoyed the spring photos of blooms and colours, especially since it snowed here overnight, leaving behind 4 inches. It was all gone and I've been out gardening - don't know what happened!
    Happy Easter Kitty

  20. These are so pretty! I think that next time we visit our daughter in Dallas, we should visit the arboretum! All the photos look so 'springtime' while we're in the midst of another snow storm here in NW Wisconsin. There's a reason our daughter moved to Texas. :-) Have a lovely day.
