For Sis Dawn's VSN Challenge- Do What You Do Best,"CRAFT "!
I love doing my own plaids ,punch art many things but my native flowers the most. This is one leftover from the last VSN I took part in.....and it's clear to see it's time I need to See if I can find one of my most used stamp "Handmade With Aloha" on the backside which has been my trademark on my cards. but it is a sentiment that fits this challenge which is to create a card using a crafty sentiment.

You are so talented and creative, Victoria! I just love, love, love your plaid background, & those awesome flowers you create with just a punch & some ink! And what a wonderful sentiment to go with it all! Beautiful!

I love that you have made your own plaid, and what gorgeous colors you have chosen, I particularly love the combination of this pink and green, SO fresh, and the addition of that blue adds a great balance!
Those leaves are great, those yellow and pinks used are so beautiful. I love it that you've used this unconventional color for them, it brings out the color them and they look like an amazing sunset in terms of the color blend, stunningly beautiful--to me, sunsets are one of God's great gifts to us, just as is the rainbow and the wonderful promise that God made to us is remembered every time I see a rainbow. And that purple/blue fancy-edged oval behind helps ground the blue/purple color in the plaid. This is just all so wonderful!!!
Thank you so much for leaving the multiple kind and thoughtful comments on my cross-stitched birthday card--you truly touched my heart to leave comments on more than one photo posting, thank you!!! I don't make cards all that often mainly due to health constraints, but I am trying to find ways of working on cards regularly, because when I do, I am so engaged artistically and I know that I need this, and card-making gives that to me--plus I am able to send a card and hopefully be an encouragement to someone else, which is very important to me.
