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!

MIM # 257 Sentiment strip Grounding

Lexi has a video over at Make It Monday showing us how she uses strips to 'ground' her images.  I pulled out the Forget Me Not set and put them into a Mega Gracious Vase and added my 'table' to ground everything.
Nice technique, one I often forget to do! 
Thanks for stopping by!  Glad for the rain today, no guilt stamping!!

So beautiful Colleen...love your gorgeous flowers in that beautiful vase! Hardly Stircly Bluegrass is always so tempting to us but since it is a free event we thought it would be just crazy! How fun for you and your hubby to attend. One of these years I will brave it! I am more of a rocker but would love to go just once.
