Kindness and Daisy Garden

My hubby and I recently returned home from a visit to Virginia Beach to be with his mom. While it was not a vacation, as she is unable to live alone, it was an enjoyable visit. When we got home, I was thrilled to see my Stampin’ Up! order had arrived. Nothing is more exciting that getting a Stampin’ Up! order from UPS. Right???

One of the new toys in my order was the Daisy Garden background stamp and oh boy it is beautiful. Today’s card was inspired by a sample in the annual catalog on page 106. Enjoy!
