I've spotted the blooming bush on my way from the grocery store, but I didn't dare to approach it due to people on the streets. I thought of coming back in the dark, however there's always the chance somebody will walk the dog in the early morning or evening hours.
Finally, I discovered the perfect moment: just before the storm began, with everyone staying inside or trying to get home as soon as possible, I slipped past the parked cars, ducked behind the bush and took off with a couple of branches just before heavy wind turned into heavy rain :)
Turns out I could actually dig out one of my latest cards and make a quick 2 in 1 photo-shooting.
Once again, I've stitched the swirly pattern, decorated it with pearls and placed it on a matching background paper featuring pink roses.
A little contribution to the May collection of Create in Austria - artwork created by Austrians and/or in Austria.
