I was having one of those days.
You're probably thinking I mean a bad day.
Not at all. Instead, it was a day where I experienced a bit of perspective. Those are good days :) Tend to lose that perspective once and a while.
I was walking my boy, Spencer this afternoon. It was drizzling a little the air was cool. I breathed deeply and smelled the honeysuckle - gosh I love that smell. Spencer was trotting around sniffing; he loves these little walks. And I reflected as we walked and realized how much I loved it too. I have so much to be thankful for and life is wonderful.
I need those kind of moments on occasion.
So I made a card to reflect my contemplative mood :)
It's for the latest Make It Monday Challenge (to make your own glimmer mist) and Play Date Cafe color challenge.
Here's my card.
LOL! It's faded a bit now but still pretty funny :) Anywho, I've gone on long enough! Have a great day. Don't forget to take a moment to look around and take in life :)
Thanks so much for stopping by!
TTFN,

Simply beautiful. Love the layered vellum butterflies and the reflective sentiment.
Great card. Love the chartreuse color. Also loved your story about perspective. It's so easy to lose sight of the important things.
Yes, the leaves do look really neat, even if the damask pattern didn't show up. Love this simple design. THanks for sharing it with us at The Play Date CAfe!
You should frame this beauty and proudfly display it :) This is jaw dropping gorgeous!
Your card is beautiful. I love those little moments where you realize how great life really is. Excellent way to celebrate it!
Well, I think your card turned out marvelously, especially for a new technique...those butterflies are just darling against the shimmery background!
And it is nice to have a fresh reminder now and then of all we have to be thankful for!
Thanks for playing along with us at the Play Date Cafe!
Really pretty card. I laughed at your clean up photo. We all have those moments.
