FRIENDS ARE LIKE FLOWERS

Good morning, I do hope everyone had a lovely Easter break.  I can't believe it's over for another year.  I hope you had time to do a little crafting and enjoy time with family and friends.

It's funny when I designed this sketch for 

Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 I thought of making a Christmas card, how wrong was I, I decided on flowers instead.

Sketch #276
