Cactus Monday: A dose of color & Giveaway

It has been so grey and gloomy in Rhode Island for a while now that I decided to paint myself  a little dose of color to cheer me up! Oh what five minutes can do!
It's been a whiile since I've done anything for Cactus Monday, too.
It feels good to play again.
Happy Cactus Monday! I hope your day is colorful.♥

  14. Such a cheery cactus...I love the prickles! I'm sorry your weather has been less than lovely. Our weather is sunny, but frost is still showing up in the mornings. My plants are struggling to stay alive, with the cold temps and hot, dry days!
