Spring Has Sprung at Flourishes

SunflowerCloseup

I chose the Sunflowers set along with the Seeds Of Friendship for my creation today.  I have been busy getting my garden ready and my son and I always plant sunflower seeds.  He loves watching them grow way above his head.. I watercolored my sunflowers and cut them out.. Then I popped them up on my seed packet.  
The checked ribbon is from Maya Road. The button is Basic Grey-Olivia...

  34. Dawn, what beautiful mother's day cards you conjured up for us. I have to say that my fave is the last one because it has sunflowers on it and that reminds me of Soelah, my dear sister. She would make sure to plant sunflowers in front of the house every spring and the neighbors were all amazed at how high they would grow being that was the only flowers on our front lawn. He, he, he!

    I hope you are well my dear and know that you are always the sweet little smiling friend I love to visit. Maybe someday in real life. We could go out walking, while the girls have coffee. LOL

    Hugs, Peggy
