    Hi there Julie,
    What a lovely day you had. And all those spring blooms look gorgeous. I've been meaning to email to apologise for not posting my zine on printing yet... I will this week, I hope, I hope.

    Hi Julie,
    Yes!! I will!! Since I will be away for the Easter-days I will join in on tuesday!
    Great!!!!
    What made you think of red rain?
    In a journal about architecture, I saw a swimming pool with red tiles instead of the normal turquoise ones. It looked strange, like they used wine for water....
    I love your trees!!!

    Such beauty! Wouldn't it be amazing to be an insect and fly into these and rummage around. I recognize the wattle........Australia's national flower.
    Thanks for your lovely comment on my blog.
