The kind hearts over at Color Hues Challenge have offered up a challenge that is hard to not participate in - making a card to show our love and support for the people of Ukraine. This is a small act, but it beats feeling completely powerless. If I can be permitted to use Nancy Leppek's (owner/creator of the Color Hues blog) words, we are "lighting up the world one card at a time".
So, to the brave citizens of Ukraine, this is my offering to you:
The colors of the Ukrainian flag are blue and yellow, and the national flower is the sunflower. I didn't find a sunflower stamp or die in my stash that felt appropriate, so I decided to use one of my favorite stamp and die sets from PTI: "Lovely Layers". I used Hero Arts "Butter Bar" and PTI's "Blueberry Sky" and "Enchanted Evening" dye inks. The sentiment is from PTI's "Beautiful Butterflies". What a perfect set for my personal "Butterfly Effect" statement in this time of chaos.
