Challenge: Peaceful Leaves
Hostess: LMcAree aka Lori
Keyword: HYCCT1307
Date: Monday, October 7th, 2013


Welcome to day 7 of challenges, we are so glad you are joining us!!
I love going for walks, the peacefulness, children laughing and playing and being with nature. We have great trails through neighborhoods, a school and a big beautiful park not far from where I live. One day as I was walking along I was thinking about how some of the patients are not able to get out and enjoy the beauty, especially this time of year.

My challenge is to use a leaf or leaves on your card. You may use a single leaf, as a background, the leaves on a tree, in a flower bouquet or anything you can think of!

I cannot wait to see your cards!!

Thank you again for joining us, and see the details below for sending in your cards.
