Grateful for Your Kindness



Happy Sunday my friends. Pat and I got back from a fabulous weekend with his sister/brothers.  His sister treated us to see Hamilton for his 50th! It was absolutely amazing. We LOVED the show and can't wait for it to come to Cincinnati in a couple years to take the boys. {there's a picture of us below outside the theater}

When we got home I was itching for a bit of time in my craft room and knew that I wanted to make a card for the current CASology challenge to make a card with the foliage theme.  I decided to follow my friend Moe's idea of trying to make two of each card I make...so two of these now exist in my stash!

Hope you are also getting some time to create this weekend.

Lynn, this is gorgeous CAS perfection! Those little leaves are so cute and I love that big sentiment!! And I'm doing the same - trying to make multiples of card. Makes sense if all the supplies are already out and on your desk!

I love your sweet and simple thank you card, Lynn! This would make a great batch design, so thank you! And thank you for sharing about your fantastic weekend and your darling photo! You two kids never get any older so I don't believe Pat is 50!! Hugs, Darnell

Lynn, this is just so perfect! Love that single bold, die cut sentiment and the way you used die cuts to accent it!
