Let Us Be Grateful...

Happy Wednesday, everyone! I hope that you are having a great middle of your week! My hubby has the day off today instead of his usual Friday, so we are going to hang out together and do some errands/fun things. That should be nice!

I have a very clean and simple card to share with you today! I love that the sentiment on this card can easily be used for friendship, but it also has a "give thanks" feel to it for this fall season. I also picked colors that were appropriate for the season as well. Here is what I created!

"Let us be Grateful..." supplies:

Cardstock/Stamps: Papertrey Ink (Dot Spot & YOF: Morning Glories sets)

Ink: Clearsnap (Pigment: violet, amber) & Tsukineko (Versafine: onyx black)

Twine: Darice Inc.

Flowers: Recollections
Corner Rounder: Creative Memories

Instructions: Make card from white cardstock, then round the bottom corners. Stamp the three dotted circles to the front, then stamp the sentiment below them. Tie a twine bow and adhere it to the middle. Add three opposite colored flowers to each stamped circle to finish.

Well, I better get going for now! I want to go and spend the day with my hubby! Have a great one! ♥♥♥

Until later,

~Lea L.
