Happy Friday, peeps! This card took me about five minutes to make....easy peasy! It uses the Hand Stamped Sentiments sketch:
along with some retired DSP and a cute little cardinal element:
I was talking to my friend's mom at our church's yard sale on Saturday. She shared that she loves cardinals, and they remind her of her dad who passed away several years ago. Now her grandkids all point out when they see a cardinal too! I had received some cardinal elements from a sweet little online jewelry company called Chadds Ford Jewelry, (she has lovely things and wonderful customer service, too!); she always encloses a little gift of some sort when you place an order, and these were my little gift. So I added one to the front of my card, and sent the rest to my friend's mom! I hope they brighten her day!
A few little enamel dots finished it off, and there isn't even any stamping on it!
Thanks for popping in today! Enjoy it and be blessed!

I have a friend who believes that Cardinals bring messages from loved ones who have passed. I just think they're so pretty - as is the one you've used today, LeAnne. A very pretty quick and easy card!

Absolutely beautiful and what a sweet thing to do for your friend's mother. I love the cardinal & saying! I also look for cardinals all the time as they remind me of my Dad too since his passing. Wonderful card, my friend! :)
This is such a lovely festive card - that red cardinal really packs a punch!
What a beautiful card and a fun way to recycle, as well! I'm sure your friend appreciates the card immensely! The bonus on this was that it only took minutes to create such beauty! Thanks for playing along with us at Hand Stamped Sentiments!
