The sun is shining, the snow seems to be melting and the weekend forecast isn't looking quite as ugly as previously mentioned. Life is good.
After seeing this week's Pinterest inspirational photo over on Splitcoast Stampers Clean & Simple Challenge thread, I had to go find the one poppy stamp I knew I owned! One from Unity! I also remembered that I haven't played along with the Unity Friends with Flair Blog Hop for a very long time, so will be linking up today's creation over there too!
I wanted to keep things delicate and white, so used a white on white layout and used only black ink. I stamped off the sentiment to soften its impact on the card, hoping to keep the focal image in the spotlight! I added three tiny red gemstones for a little interest and color. So simple, but that's the type of card I prefer! I'm thinking this will find a home in my rather empty sympathy card stash!
Now I'm off to wash our vehicle, make a library run and soak up some of that glorious sunshine with DS3!
