First before I get down to the goodies... I need to say that I am sorry that I had to desert you all for so long but June was not a happy month for my family. Unfortunately my stepfather was taken ill and died. My mum needed a lot of backup at this time and lots of arrangements had to be made. I only have one brother and he lives in Belgium so I took on the arrangements and notifications. It was not helped by family feuds which lurked in the background. It is amazing that at a time like that people can forget what has happened and still be self serving and egocentric. It does make me feel quite sad when things like that happen. At the end of a life we should be remembering and marking a life lived and now gone....but some people have long memories and cannot put things behind them for even one day. I suppose that people are people and we all have our flaws...I just wish that old differences could have been put away for at least a while. So perhaps you understand why I have not been around for a while.On a brighter note, my CT girls have made a wonderful Collab Kit for you all and there will at least one new part announced every day for the next 7 days. I have also made some little add ons to give to you all too...a little sorry from me or being AWOL that will add to their kits. I know it says "June Collab Kit" and it's almost July but the delay is down to me...sorry!
But it doesn't stop there...oh, no, there are also QP's and Brag Books too made with the girls kits, some by them and some by myself. So don't miss out on one little part of this brilliant kit over the next week!!
The theme of the kit was gardens and flowers, so it's full of pretty elements and cute little bugs and things.
Today is Ab's part of the kit and a little add on from me. I have made some watering cans and flowers to add, plus a seed packet journaling card and some stamps. I hope you like them.

I know only too well how the worst in people can come out at a time like this and I am sorry that you have to deal with that along with everything else.
God Bless you all.
Your add on is just too cute. :)
I'm on my way to Ab's and cannot wait til I collect this whole kit. Perfect from what I see. :)
June,I'm so sorry for what you've been through and I know you are worried about your mom now, too. It is so sad that people have to act like that during a time like this.
I wondered where my favorite designer had been. Glad to see you back and with such a cute freebie, too. Thanks for all you do.
Welcome back June, we missed you, but knew that you were needed elsewhere. You and your Mom, and family remain in my prayers. I LOVE your add on, everything in it looks great!!! On my way to AB's now to collect her part.
Great to have you back June and loving those watering cans... gorgeous add ons :)

Thank you so much... some little freebie on my blog for you...
So good to have you back and I offer my condolences to you, your Mum and family at this very difficult and sad time.
Great addon .....thanks!
Thank you so much!
Thank you! Your blog post will be advertised on the DigiFree Digital Scrapbooking Freebie search engine today (look for timestamp: 01 Jul [LA 03:33am, NY 05:33am, UK 10:33am, OZ 08:33pm]).
I'm so very sorry to hear about your loss. You, your mother and your family will be in my prayers and thoughts. I also marvel at how long family members can hold a grudge. I guess we all have some family like that. I lost my stepmother earlier this year and the tension between some of my family just added more turmoil to an already trying time.
Welcome back and, as always, thank you for the freebies.
