Hummingbirds and Folded Notecards

Volume 22 Issue 5, May 2025

What's New in May?

Been very busy in April putting together a lot of lovely flower cards and stickers, so May is going to be as colorful as my yard is these day. I added a hummingbird garden section of the back porch, which includes the porterweed flowers shown below. I bought purple and coral red flowers, and while I’ve yet to see a hummingbird, my butterflies have lost their collective minds trying to get all the nectar from these pretty little flowers.

In addition to building more flower boxes, I dropped a finch feeder under the trees to see if I can get some different types of birds in the yard. I have a large selection of seed eaters like cardinals, blue jays, woodpeckers, and more, but I wanted to expand the bird community by hummingbirds and finches. This is a wait-and-see type moment. 

April has been cool and comfortable, but it’s May now, and those cooler days are going to be fewer and further between. Let’s hope for more rain and less fires all over the country. 

Pretty porterweed blooms.

 

 

What’s New

Notecards: I got off my butt and created almost 50 new sets of notecards. I confess that I am a hoarder of graphics, so now, it's time to use them. They make great gift ideas for friends and family.

License Plates: As promised, I created a lot of new custom front license plates for a variety of interests.

Counted Cross Stitch Patterns: I have started putting my counted cross stitch patterns back online under the Blue Morning Expressions' umbrella. 

Until next month,

Julie
