Here we are again then, the beginning of a new month again....!

Alana was our winner last month & she has given it some thought & come up with this great theme...
Alana's choice is "Seeds & Seedheads"!! :D
This could be a wonderful theme as the plants are starting to look fabulous now , in a different way & we are all out & about now.. :WINK1: Good one Alana..!!

So, in Alana's words ....

:WINK1: So again, I am sure none of us can say they have NO inspiration for this theme..!! :WINK1: :D
It is going to be interesting & I am sure this should tickle the brain cells, well just a little anyway.. :D

I hope there will be some very inspired photos if the past is anything to go by & the weather we all have now..!! :WINK1:
