Sunflowers for Ukraine

 I left a comment on a blog this morning Chasing White Unicorns and she had posted about Gecko Galz selling some Sunflowers for Ukraine  images for a Samaritans Purse charity which I then purchased.

I was making a center fold card but whilst looking for papers found this wooden hanging at the bottom of the drawer-covered in distress ink and splashed with water,matted some of the images onto black and added some on 3-D foam and some little Hero Arts die-cut Bees.
