3 challenges inspired today's card...
Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge // #AHSC663 ...A sketch challenge!! This sketch was perfect for showcasing designer paper. It also worked perfectly to be the ground work for combining these three challenges.
Ellibelle's Garden Party // #11 ...An "anything in a garden" challenge!! Flowers and bees are almost always found in a garden together.
Just Us Girls Challenge // #JUG805 ...A word challenge!! ENCOURAGEMENT is the word for this current challenge. Every card out there offers a bit of encouragement but the reminder that "kindness matters" steps up the encouragement.
Never Been Used Schtuff // #NBUS82 ...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. Today I am inking up a stamp set that was gifted to me for the very first time...I have used other stamps in this set but this sentiment, and flower just got inked up today!!
