One seed can start a garden, one candle can light a room, one step can begin a journey, one conversation can start a friendship, one smile from a handmade card can lift one's SPIRIT!

Seems everyone thinks of poinsettias when it is a Christmas Flower.
I am no exception!
stamps:  WPlus 9: Merry & Bright, PTI Garden Variety
inks:  distress
wink of stella, glossy accents
paper:  Ranger Water color, DCWV: glitzy glitter
 
Thanks for taking a look friends!
have a great day!
 
Heart Hugs,
Colleen
