One of the things about being a Mom, is it is so rare that we take a few minutes and just do something we want to do...At least, I am not good at doing this. But it is something that I want to get better at doing. I don't mean taking a long time away from things, but rather making the most of a few spare minutes. For a while this winter, I was very good about picking up my journal and writing for a few minutes, even if it was only a list of things that I would like to write about when I have more time.
So, this morning, when I came across the Monkey challenge at A La Card Monkey I decided to see what I could come up with in just a few minutes. I went through my scrap paper folder and this is what I came up with after 15 minutes...
Stamp sets: SU The Open Seas (summer mini) and SU retired sentiments (I don't know the name, if you do, please leave a comment so I can add it)
Cardstock: SU Cherry Cobbler and Crumb Cake
SU Designer series paper: Nautical from Summer Mini
Accesories: dimensionals, corner punch, 1" circle punch, baker's twine cherry cobbler/white (from Summer Mini), button is from my mother's button box that somehow made it to my house.
Not too bad for a quick slap and dash kinda card.
Happy Stamping
