I really enjoy this time of year and strolling through our complex to admire all the lovely flowers. Right now there are a lot of Azaleas and Rhododendrons in full bloom, in a wonderful array of pinks, reds, whites and yellows. They are simply stunning. I took a photo of the walkway down to the pond to share with you. The Wisteria is in full bloom and so fragrant.
Here is the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #680 for this week. If you’ve never tried a sketch challenge and want an enjoyable way to use your craft supplies, joining a sketch challenge is a wonderful way to pass the time. Even if you don’t share your work on a blog or Instagram and simply create for your own enjoyment, you’ll be happy you took part.
Here's My Card:
