Bloom With Thankfulness

 


4 challenges inspired today's card...

Alphabet Challenge // 06MAR26 ...An ABC challenge!!  W is for WILDFLOWER!!  I think sunflowers count as a wildflower.  Even though I have tried to plant them from seeds I think they do better popping up in the wild in their native areas.

Just Us Girls // #JUG814 ...A word challenge!!  The word this week is EMBOSS!!  I embossed a partial frame around my flower...minimalistic...YES...but embossing just the same.

Ellibelle's Garden Party // #13 ...An "anything found in the garden" challenge!!  Sunflowers...I love the pop of color they bring to our vegetable garden!!

TGIF Challenges // #tgif568 ...A sketch challenge!!  This sketch was perfect for combining these challenges...the embossed frame and the wildflower...PERFECT!!



Never Before Used Schtuff // #NBUS84 ...The NBUS blog doesn't give challenges but offers a great place to show off those items that have never been used...whether they are brand new or items that you have had for a while but haven't gotten around to using.
