Butterfly Blessings

     Wow, its been a crazy week!  For some reason my last two trips to the craft store I was drawn to aisles that didn't have stamps or paper in them.  Instead I found myself purchasing crosses, frames, and wood with a gazillion ideas of what I hope to do with them.   They are all now, laying around my work space, in various stages of completion.  I think overload hit on Thursday - at that point I just had to take a break.
     There were also some cards - almost done - laying around as well.  Today I got a message from a friend at SCS about someone in need of prayer.....and sending a card would be nice too!  Finished this card up and will put it in the mail Monday.  I am excited to send this - when I recently purchased this stick pin at the Our Daily Bread Design booth at the Lawrenceville show I couldn't wait to use it.  It is the kind of embellishment that called me outside of my comfort zone of how I usually design.  I hope the recipient of this card smiles as much as I did when I sat back and viewed it after I finished it.


Thanks for stopping by, have a great day,
