"You are my sunshine"

Hi everyone,
  hope you are all well. I want to say  a special hello to my new followers, I am always pleased to see someone new has joined, it means I have a new blog friend for me to visit and follow too.
  I hope you are all enjoying this fantastic sunshine. My hubby has been out in the garden each night mowing the lawns and sorting out the borders, only trouble is he's no good with identifying plants from weeds so every five mins it's "have a look at this one will you" not that good when I'm two stories up in the craft room. So I got some lolly sticks, and each plant now has a lolly stick by it, ones without  are out.
Can't remember how many poppies I've bought cos he thinks they're nettles! Well that sorted I should have a bit more colour in my garden this year, why are most weeds yellow?
   This card is one I have made for a friend.
