Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog!
post's purpose...the why: This posting showcases three design team projects for Heart's Quest Fantasy Challenges Blog. I took over the ownership about 3 years ago! Wow! Time has quickly rolled along! The main theme is always anything goes fantasy and the #4/April focus option is UNICORN. I've got two AGF choices and 1 focus option unicorn cards.

2. designer paper and image are both from same set = The Paper Shelter
3. sentiment hand-lettered using dark brown marker pen = Zebra Clickarts
