For the Alpha H challenge. H for happy. Had these pieces from my stash and made a birthday card. Going through things I keep and came across this quote from my favourite memoir author-Anne Lamott:"Beauty is the miracle of things going together imperfectly." So, that seemed to fit my effort here. tfl

I love putting scraps together and I am always excited to see the wonderful results when beautiful papers come together on a card!! Sometimes elements of art just tie things together in ways our minds and eyes don't perceive. I like to think that is how God connects all of creation. What deep thoughts your piece as inspired in me!!LOL

What a fabulous wildflower card this is Shirl! I adore this Anne Lamott quote and chuckled a bit about how that reflected in this wonderful card you made (I do understand!). I just love your use of DP and this dandelion stem is fantastic, but it is how you used the little strip of lace below your sentiment that I adore! Your dainty twine bow and gemstone are the perfect finishing touches on this wonderful H card Shirl. ~Karen.
