Warm Wishes To Ukraine

 Hello and welcome.  Like many, I have been transfixed and horrified by the invasion of Ukraine and deliberate attacks on civilians.  I have also admired the resolute way the Ukrainians are standing up and fighting for their country and freedoms.  One thing for sure, I will NEVER take for granted the freedoms I have living in the United States.  I also wish the leaders for the rest of the world would get off their butts and help defend Ukraine even if it means sending my nephew into a war zone.  I have donated what I can afford so about the only way I can support the Ukrainians now is through card making and the #cardsforukraine galleries.  With that in mind, today's card features the free Warm Hugs Sunflower from Power Poppy.  In fact, all of Power Poppy's sunflowers (the national flower of Ukraine) are free to download.  You can find all of them here.

After I printed off my image onto Hammermill white card stock, I then colored it using both prismacolor and copic markers before stippling Tim Holtz Broken China distress ink around it.  Once that was finished, I layered the colored image before adding blue brads and adhering to a pacific pointe card.  I'm really happy with how it  turned out since I'm still dealing with COVID and migraines.
