Greetings and salutations as we are in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. I hope everyone is well...physical and mentally! It can be a challenge some days. We are well. Thankfully, all three of my guys, my husband and two sons, Steven and Taylor, are in essential jobs and continue to work. I quickly made the transition to Zoom for my Bible study and ladies ministry responsibilities at church. Not without a few tears along the way!

Today I am sharing a card I made for the As You See It challenge. A first for me! It is kind of a season of first, wouldn't you agree?! So, here is the photo challenge: 



Wonderful flowers! But it is a speed challenge! 10 minutes start to finish to make a card. Oh, my! I quickly had my idea in my head. 



I set the stamp pads out, put the stamps on the blocks and set the timer! I finished in 9 minutes. Do I like the card? Not really. But, hey, it is a start. I used SU's Daisy Lane stamp set and stamped the flowers in Gorgeous Grape, Highland Heather, Mango Melody and even a couple in Daffodil Delight. I added some retired little floral sequins.  I stamped the sentiment in Gorgeous Grape, used one of the stitched rectangle dies to cut it out and then popped it up with a few dimensionals and set it over a piece of the purple tricolor ribbon.

I hope you'll join the fun and try your hand at speed stamping some beautiful flowers! It made me laugh! And laughing is always a good thing!

Blessings,
Tracy
