With my kids back at school (finally), I had a bit of time to craft just for fun. I made 2 cards inspired by a variety of challenges.
First up is this valentine. I finally broke into the My Monthly Hero kit from May, 2019 to create this fun, knitting themed valentines day card. I am entering it at A Blog Named Hero January Challenge: Anything Goes, Freshly Made Sketches #419, Addicted to Stamps and More #373: Holiday (Valentines Day), and Simon Says Monday: Home Decor (knitted blanket).
My next card celebrates friendship with some cute Lawn Fawn birds from Feathered Friends.
I am playing along at Lawn Fawnatics #69: For the Birds, Use Your Stuff #390: Friendship, Paper Players #475--(a pretty liberal interpretation of the sketch), and Simon Says Wednesday Challenge: Besotted by our Pets (My friend had a pet bird).

Thanks for Visiting
