What a great challenge today! So I learned that the Missouri state flower is the Hawthorne. Still have no clue if I have ever even seen a Hawthorne! I do not own a stamp of this flower, so I played it safe and went with the U.S floral symbol-a rose.
Happy Independence Day everyone!

This is so pretty, LeeAnn! I'm not familiar with the Hawthorne either, nor did I know the national flower is a rose - learning so much here today! Your coloring of these sweet images is just gorgeous and I love the lacy touch of the doily! Into my faves.

I did not know you were a neighbor to Iowa. Your card is just beautiful . Love the little blue bird. All the elements just came together wonderfully. Very pretty
