Valentine’s map for my daughter

[المشرف العام]

It’s fun every now and then to play with Stamen Design’s*Map Stack. Tonight as I was playing with it in part to wind down from a long work week, my 3-year-old requested a pink and purple map.

So, a pink and purple map. I can do that:



The cool thing about Map Stack, is I can share a link for my creation (click on the link above image), but I can also now embed this in a QGIS map.
