Find Joy ....

 

Blessings, everyone!

 

 

 

When I was little, my dad used to use the saying

"don't miss the forest for the trees!" 

It took me a little while to figure out what he meant by that :)

 

Today, as a busy mom always running to and fro,

and always on the go, go, go ...
 I remind both myself and my children to stop and enjoy the small things.

When I saw this new Inspirations stamp from Riley and Company,
I was so excited because it's very me ♥
I'm a firm believer in finding joy in the ordinary ~
life, embrace, enjoy everything around you.
It only takes a second ...
to just be in the moment, that moment of everything ordinary
and turn it into something extraordinary.
 

 Cherish the breeze blowing,

the sunshine landing just right,

the scent of the flowers on the wind,

the chirping of birds,

the dance of the butterflies in flight ...

the small things ♥

 

I've paired this stamp with some papers I had in my stash,
along with a few enamel dots.
And I decorated the inside of my card as is my custom,
 adding one of the new Funny Bones
sentiments as well with another positive message :)

As a reminder, these two stamps are part of the new release available
this Friday, April 10th.  26 new Inspirations stamps and 29 Funny Bones
will be released and you can see the sneak peeks with them all week long
on the DT blogs :)

Thanks for stopping by!
Big Hugs, Bigger Blessings!
