Nothing quite takes your mind off stress and worries like a walk in a park or nature preserve seeing all the beauty ....or maybe your preference is a ride in a boat listening to the oars hit the water ....or maybe you are like me and you enjoy jumping on a horse and listening to his feet hit the earth in a rhythmic beat to the song of birds ...or maybe you would enjoy just laying in a hammock smelling the fresh cut lawn and listening to crickets!
Nature can be a rejuvenating time whether your desire is to relax/meditate or get your heartbeat up with some hiking/running!
So get out there and Enjoy Nature, then come in to the craft room and share with us through any type of art medium you choose!!

About my card: I started in Cricut Design Space where I placed/printed my digi and sentiment. I then cut an oval for my stencil. After all was printed and cut, I placed the stencil over the digi and applied three colors of ink with a sponge. Keeping the stencil in place, I splattered with paint. Easy as that!
All that was left was finding some stash paper that matched my color theme and assembling my card.

Remember, you may share any sort of artistic medium over at PoP: writing, cards, journals, scrapbooking, painting, sewing, baking, needle crafts, etc as long as it is positive! The theme is always optional.
