I made this for Cheryl's Dare To Get Dirty challenge. I wasn't sure where I was going with this one until I watched a friend's video this morning. She celebrated a one year anniversary of quitting smoking and now she is going onto a weight loss journey. So I made this card in her honor.
I'm so proud of her and will be getting together with her soon to celebrate her birthday. I'm not sure if she likes purple, but I may give it to her anyway!
Thanks for looking!

Oh, Toni, this is beautiful! I love thistle (my Scottish heritage showing through there), and I love the design and layout! Beautifully done, and your coloring is exquisite with excellent fussy cutting (something I love to do). Kudos to your friend, and I know she will love this and appreciates your encouragement and friendship. Thanks so much for making a card for my challenge! I LOVE it! Hugs!

I love, love the greeting! I have a couple of Thistle images as well and I am going to use this greeting! Your coloring of the thistle is gorgeous! and the purple hearts behind it tie in with the greeting so nicely! Lovely card!
