RELAX!

Hey, everyone!

I love my new TAC stamps, if you didn't know! (LOL) They're a lot of fun to play with and create fun cards with! This is my first attempt at a Matchbox card without any directions/instructions/measurements to speak of. I saw a card I wanted to try, an invitation, to be exact. I never copy a card piece by piece, but rather I am inspired by several sources and then come up with my own design! This is not exactly ready for the magazines, but it really speaks to me. The birds seem so relaxed and as if they are just waiting for the next great thing to happen! I wanted to make a spring-ish card and loved using words like laugh, enjoy, relax, delight and live to remember. This card is a reminder to reflect on all that God has blessed us with and enjoy it. I think about my planner that is so beat up from rifling back and forth through the pages (though it is only March) and how we can be so busy with life, events, appointments, activities and our own agendas that we often miss out on the simple, good things we have in abundance in our lives. I feel like God is whispering to me, "Rest in Me. Take a break from the hustle and bustle and sit with Me for awhile." He is such an awesome God! I am so thankful that I know Him. Do you? I just love Him so much!
