Thank You


Another thank you for a friend who took care of my cat and watered my plants 
while I was away for back surgery.
I was inspired by Day 2 of My Favorite Things Summer School, with a focus
on primary colors. I had just made some "dragged paint" backgrounds using
red, yellow, and blue, so I used the leftover pieces for my flowers on this card.

Acrylics - Delta and Plaid
Ink - Ranger Distress Oxide
