Wow, wonderful card, Loll! I love the cacti pots and that wooden floor looks awesome! It must be even better IRL, with the scored lines! Great coloring of the cacti, too!
Such a great idea for the bench the plants are sitting on Loll and swiping the pads across gives a much more natural look. I love the different greens for the pretty cacti too and the orangy brown gives the look of terracotta. A beautiful card! x
Love your clever wood effect Loll and must file that idea away for future reference. Love your terracotta effect too and those beautiful cacti - always love them as they remind me of my youngest son! Vicky x
Brilliant wooden planks Loll! Great card. x
Love your beautifully colored cacti plants sitting on the awesome distressed wooden floor or...it could be a deck:-) TFS your details too, my friend. Love and Hugs...Nancy
I'm so glad you could just have some fun, Lolly! Love your plants and the wood grain is fantastic!
Oh, how pretty!! Love the cacti plants and the wooden floor! All colored beautifully!!
your cacti look wonderful on your scored wooden table, so clever :)
Great colouring of the plants and pots, and a perfect grounding with the wood floor (neat technique for creating it).
I have a cacti stamp set that is NBUS, your card has me wanting to get mine out and see what I can do. I love the way you have colored your cacti, they look great as does the pots. The floor, oh goodness, the floor is amazing and I love how it came out too. Hugs, Brenda
Really lovely Loll.

I love your floor and the cacti are so cute! What fun this is, Loll. "Just because" is the best reason to make a card!
So good to find some time just to do some card making, just for fun Loll x. The wood effect looks wonderful and the colouring of those cacti looks fabulous. A cheery card Loll x.
I love succulents so this card is right up my street. Such wonderful water colouring too and that floor is just fantastic, what a clever way to do the planks xx
Nice to have some free time Loll, to just make a card at your whim - and your cactus row are wonderful... great technique for the floor. Do hope all is well for you and happy new year wishes, hugs Robyn

I don’t remember the last time I made a card just for fun. 🙁 This is adorable and beautifully watercolored as usual. Great job creating the floor boards.
