Hand-Penned

My husband and I took a road trip to Perryopolis, PA and we stayed at an adorable Airbnb in Urbana Ohio. It was Monument Square Suites if you want to look it up. Not only was the suite perfectly cleaned and elegantly decorated, it was walking distance to some local shops and restaurants. The front and back of the home had the most amazing flowers and greenery.  I am always grateful to people who have a talent for growing things.

My card today is the extent of my green thumb.  We all have different gifts and talents. Mine just lies in paper crafting and not potted soil. LOL The Hand-Penned Bundle and Designer Series paper pair perfectly with water coloring and is the focus of my card today.
