Lazy Day.....

Happy Monday Peeps!
Yesterday was a very lazy day for me hence the title of this post. I didn't accomplish any of the things I set out to do with the exception of dinner......I relaxed and watched quite a few movies with the kiddos instead. We had a nice time chattin', laughin' and just hangin' out---the perfect day!!!

I decided to case myself to make things easier on me LOL! I made a card exactly like this about a year ago and just loved the simplicity of it. That cb folder is so pretty and makes your job of filling in *empty* space not so intimidating. It was not hard to just *leave it alone* after I was done putting it all together.....I'm usually fighting with myself to sponge some color or add embellishments!! Now I can finally say that I've accomplished a *simple* card that I'm truly happy with!!

Well, I have to get busy with laundry, cook another meal and start preparing my kiddos valentines....I'll be busy! Thanks so much for stopping by and hope you have a great rest of the day!!
TTFN,

  2. I had a lazy day too. Love those. Your card is awesome. Do you find yourself using the CB more often in place of BG stamps? I know I do.

  3. Very pretty - I can see why you'd use that design again. And that CB background goes so nice with the butterfly - I like the pairing.

  15. Lovely card, great colors! I know what you mean about wanting to add a little something to the white background. I am always tempted to sponge on a little color! Your card is perfect the way it is!
