April 15th - Leonardo Da Vinci Birthday

Today is Leonardo Da Vinci's birthday! He was born on this day in 1452 and died May 2, 1519.
He had a keen eye and quick mind that led him to make important scientific discoveries, yet he never published his ideas.
He was a gentle vegetarian who loved animals and despised war, yet he worked as a military engineer to invent advanced and deadly weapons.
He was one of the greatest painters of the Italian Renaissance, yet he left only a handful of completed paintings.

Leonardo Da Vincis' Mona Lisa is his most famous painting, but his study of sunflowers was his most famous group of paintings! Gotta love sunflowers!



For this challenge, I want to see some sunflowers on a card or layout or anything else!!!
They can be a photo of sunflowers, they can be a sunflower flower, anything at all.. just has to be a sunflower!

You will have until minight April 29th to get your project uploaded to here! Have fun!

Gorgeous Helen!!! I went to Micheals last night looking for something with sunflowers, yeah well... I ended up going to Dollarama to find something. I couldn't believe that a big store like Micheal's didn't have a thing with sunflowers.

Thanks Stephanie and Jackie!!

I can't say that I am happy with the picture but the card is really very pretty. The sunflowers are really yellow and not orange.. I could not for the life of me get this card to photo properly
