BIRTHDAY FLOWERS

Welcome to my blog, and thank you for visiting.   Today I'm sharing a card with you for the first two new sketches for 2026 over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2.

I gave this card to my daughter-in-law for her birthday.

  I do hope that 2026 is treating you well, and you all had an amazing New Year's celebration.
