The end of May has so quickly arrived and Patti is our hostess this month for our Faith Blog group's challenge for May. . She reminded us of the wonderful custom of delivering May baskets to our friends or neighbors. I've made mine for a friend who had surgery this week. I stamped the paper for the basket with a basket weave background stamp that I just love from Flourishes. I loved the quote from Texas' fabulous Lady Bird Johnson, and I diecut some flowers and leaves to arrange in my basket. That was the REAL challenge, trying to arrange my one dimensional flowers to look more 3-D.

Love your basket! It looks so real with the basket weave pattern on it. I don't stamp well but I can do flowers. I have some flower tutorials on my blog if you ever want to check them out.
