For today I am playing along with Addicted to CAS, Retro Sketches, and Colour Q. All these challenges have inspired me to create this card.. Here is my card for today, enjoy!

| Another one layer card. Heat embossed leaf scene then added different shades of green using watercolor. |
 |
| I wanted to take a different look at the word 'gift'. Using the gift of nature seemed appropriate. |

Colour Q: cQc #333

Addicted to CAS: Challenge #83- Gift
I think this time of year in the Northern Hemisphere I think we all amazed at the wonder of life. Leaves are budding on the trees again, birds are singing again, and the sun is out thawing us all off. I think that is why I really enjoy living in a part of the world with four seasons. Without any one season I think you have a less time appreciating the one you are about to embark. For me, Spring is on the way.. And for that hooray!!
Thank you so much for helping me with my blog anxiety.. I guess everything is good from the outside looking in!! Also, I want to thank you so much for stopping by. Your visits and comments do inspire me to live a creative life! Take care all... See you sooner then later!
All the Best,
Shawna
