Did you notice the new banner for Rednesday? I used a vintage card with carnations for this months theme. It's pretty, but there is a reason why I chose it.....Carnation is the Flower of the Month.
See the carnations in the glass on this
1881 seed catalog? Carnations are one of the oldest cultivated flowers dating back over 2000 years. The botanical name, Dianthus,
after the goddess of love Diana, means flower of the god's or flower of love. Roman's used carnations in homes to keep evil away. Roman's and Greeks used laurel and carnations in crowns for gladiator and Olympic winners. It's said that during Christ's walk to Calvary with the cross, wherever Mary's tears fell pink carnations sprouted and bloomed. 


The carnation is said to represent love, pride, beauty, distinction, fascination,and loyalty. 
The next time you see a carnation and think it's just ho-hum.....
think again. Think outside of the box 8)

What is it?!

Ya know how you look at something one way and then see something completely different?





Isn't this a pretty floral flourish to embroider?






Wow, it's really a floral monogram. Aren't they pretty.


How about this one. An unusual mushroom?

Nope, A bowl of onions and it seems one was incognito.


Here's another I recently found......
A simple red potato......

that seemed to be looking at me.

She just wanted to introduce herself.....Frieda Spudinski.

I know, isn't this a silly post? But, it's just a reminder to look at the ordinary and see the extraordinary.  
Now let's go visit Cindy at
