What a wonderful comment, thank you. And I try to cultivate that twinkle--it sure helps when life throws a curve ball.

Hello and thanks! I chose five varieties for a mixed bed and it was hard to narrow it down to that--so many interesting plants available! I suspect the bed will expand!

Love how you used the topo lines. Lovely work!

A beautiful bouquet, and you're right, the focus of the day for me is about nurturing, which is why it's always a garden day for me, with or without my kids. And don't forget all of those pet mamas! Animals make the world a better place.

Super layering here! It's amazing how they grow, isn't it?

Love the abstraction of this with the bird presiding over it all.

Now that's something to celebrate! I like the number border.

Great family page, and I too love the frame treatment!

Lovely evocative work.

Good use of the stitching--I love the straight line sets for precisely that reason. Hope you're on the mend!

We had over 4 inches in one weekend, very happy trees! Love the rainbow!

A great day...topped with ice cream! Excellent documentation. Good luck with those begonias!

Enjoying your blending artfulness in this, and loving the photo!

Your taste-tester tells the story! Adorable recipe layout. And I am just now realizing I have never once made homemade frosting. Yikes!

This is the second Mother's Day spent planting with the kids at our new/old (1876) farmhouse upstate...an ornamental grass bed, which turned out beautifully and will only improve year after year. Little by little we're reclaiming the land from the overgrowth, and it feels great. I started this...

Grandma is definitely right, and I like how you doubled down on the pie! Can't have too much. Nice incorporation of the red color in the APP with echoes of it in the text.

Bold! Beautiful! And that's a fabulous unicorn!

The large photo works really well. I like the complementary color in the background too--excellent use of the APP.

Soft, beautiful, and full of memory.

Wonderful work! Love, love, love!
