Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog!
why: This post showcases my newest owner/design team fantasy projects for Heart's Quest Fantasy Challenges blog (HQFCB). The theme is anything goes fantasy. No fantasy focus option for 2026...just do anything fantasy. I've got an angel for project #1 (same image from December just colored in different color palette) and a gnome spotlighted from his forest home for project #2.
when: #2 starts February 7 and ends on February 28, 2026.
