One seed can start a garden, one candle can light a room, one step can begin a journey, one conversation can start a friendship, one smile from a handmade card can lift one's SPIRIT!

Natural Beauties

I showed this card to my husband and he starts singing:  "Happy Birthday to me"...it is not his birthday!  The second thing he ALWAYS does is open the card...ha ha, I very rarely have a sentiment inside!  Then he really looks at the card and says:  "this is an 'old fashioned' kind of card"...and I said, "yes, I guess it does look like that" and then I tell him this was the stamp I had to spend $100 to get for FREE!! And his response:  "of course you did, and it is not like you have any other flowers".  To which I replied:  "Yes, but NONE like this...it is a one of a kind and can NEVER be purchased again!"  We both laughed!

So yes, this is the Natural Beauties from the fabulous SAF by Papertrey, Ink.  And really the $100 I spent  was for paper that I was running very low on, and then a few other essential items, like the star border die that I have been coveting since it's release, and the Harvest Berry Die after seeing what Betsy did with it during the SAF day...so it is all good stuff, KWIM??!!
