TGIF Challenge - 133: Just Breathe

Just Breathe.  I think we all need this reminder sometimes, right?!  As I write this...I am in the middle of getting ready for Stampin' Up!'s On Stage event (it's their convention).  I am SOOOOO excited and could just squeal at the thought of this event.  However...getting ready to leave my family for 4 full days, along with the things I need to do for the event (and a fun pre demo-event that my fabulous friend is putting on!!!) ...well it is NOT easy.  So...if you are feeling overwhelmed or stressed...my submission for today's fun TGIF CHALLENGE is a reminder...just breathe.  (You will see what I mean if you keep reading...)

First up...check out the challenge this week!  It's a SKETCH!  WOOT!!! 🙌  These are so fun because most of the thinking is done for you!

Ok...on to the "just breathe" part of this post.  Here is my card for the challenge...

Colors: Soft Sky, Smoky Slate, Melon Mambo, Lemon Lime Twist, Gold

Cardstock/Papers:  Whisper White, Smoky Slate, Melon Mambo, Lemon Lime Twist, Naturally Eclectic Designer Series Paper

Stamps: Colorful Seasons (greeting), Climbing Orchid

Tools: Triple Banner Punch, Orchid Builder Framelits

Accessories: Gold Thread, Black Rhinestones, Gold Enamel Shapes

What do you think?!  Would you need to receive this card for you to have a reminder to do this?  😀 I know I do sometimes!  It's important to take time for ourselves when we can.  Even if it's just for a few minutes to "just breathe."

I kept this card really simple beacause:

A.) The sketch calls for simple!
B.)  I didn't want anything distracting from the message of this card.  😀

Love these little gold Enamel Shapes.  Easily one of my fave accessories in the catalog...

I hope you enjoyed this challenge and card!  And I also hope you play along with us!!!  Check out THE CHALLENGE BLOG to submit your entry!!
