Toni's challenge today is all about time. We all know how precious time is in our lives. There never seems to be enough to get everything done. We are to use clocks, calendars, belated birthday cards....any thing to do with time. My card is for a niece's birthday on May 5. Painted the flowers...added the squares to look like a calendar, and wrote the wish. I hope you all have a little extra time today to play along, and have fun. Enjoy your day!

Cute! What a clever idea for the time challenge. The calendar look is creative. Those flowers are amazing! You should be a stamp designer. Love the white petals on the blue paper and the black centers. The doodling is fun. Nice card. TFS

You paint so beautifully, Linda. This reminds me of the real "proper" old-fashioned advent calendars that didn't need filling with chocolates but just had little doors to open.

I'm guessing her B'day is the 5th! LOL! Of course I read your description, so I know it is. Love that Tiffany blue and white!

Love the clever design on this Linda! Your hand painted flowers always make your cards so special and I especially love the doodles around them! What a beautiful color and love the rich contrast with black!
