Happy Friday dear friends!! I have to be honest, I didn't even realize that it was Friday as I sat down to write this. Such is the joy of summer break!! Ahhhh, it just feels so good to live an unscheduled life for a bit. I don't think I would like it year round, but it is heavenly during the summer months! This is the first summer that I have been empty nested, and I tell you the house is very quiet during the day. I get up early with my sweetie and have some peaceful quiet time doing my devotions. What a blessing it is to not rush through, but to take my time and enjoy the word and apply it to my life! My favorite time of the day, however, is when my sweetie arrives home. I am so thankful for the love we share and I need to plan a fun and exciting anniversary celebration. If anyone has any ideas, I would love for you to share them. I only have 6 days to figure it out, yikes, time is flying by.
In the meantime, I have a fun little card to share. This little card is #2 in a series of four that I am creating with Papertrey Ink's Garden Variety stamp and die set. I don't know if you noticed, but I have added a little birdie from my other favorite set, Little Bitty Bird to these cards. It's so fun to combine all my PTI loves together!!! I created this for the Wee Memories Challenge #59 which is an Anything Goes Challenge! Whoo hoo! I love these challenges because the sky is the limit and you are free to go wherever your creative brain takes you!!!
Here's the Challenge:
Here's my take on the Challenge:
