Embossed Gratitude

I don’t know when the last time was that I felt so grateful for Monday’s return!  Last week was crazy busy!  A good kind of busy, mind you, but just a lot busier than this momma is accustomed to!  Every spring we have some extra privileges with our church and, with those, there are special visits & meals that need tending to.  Despite the busy feeling that wells up within me, it is all so worth it!  It never fails that I come away from it all refreshed, strengthened and encouraged beyond measure.  Like the photo above (a landscaping project DH & I tackled Saturday), I’m a work in progress!

The evenings have provided some time for me to unwind and a little of that time has been spent happily creating some clean and simple cards to share this week.  Love clean and simple cards when life isn’t so clean & simple!

Today’s card features a Quickutz embossing folder, baker’s twine, an oval punch, a butterfly stamp from Prickley Pear’s Mini Butterfly Clear Set and some tiny red gemstones.  Quick and so very simple!
