Here's what I made and you can too with 15 minutes and some scraps. Cut scraps to 3.5 x 7 inches and fold. Mat scraps of patterned paper (same or different) with white cardstock and attach to cards. Hand write sentiments on scraps and ink edges (green). Then chalk with contrasting chalk (yellow). Attach to cards and add buttons and embroidery floss. Easy Peasy... Now go grab some scraps and make yourself or someone you love some cutesy cards!
Words to live by right now. Smile... I always do, I love it... it makes me feel good. Laugh... Also feels really good. Faith... that everything that I need (not want) will be provided. Love... Remembering that this is what makes a life a life. Dream... of new things to come!
CUTE! Thanks for sharin'. I'm off to the craft room with new inspiration.

Couldn't have said it better myself. Deena, you know my treasured beauty secret for keeping wrinkles at bay, but I know the reason I have so many to get rid of is from laughing and smiling alot every day! It sure makes life worth living when you can find humor in the monotony and sometime absolutely ridiculous stuff that happens each day. Go have a good one!!!
