~Just A Note~
May 6th, 2019 by Holly McMillen
What a wonderful weekend it’s been! First, I should tell you that May is always a difficult month for me. My mom passed in May of 1992 and with her birthday and Mother’s day also in May, it has typically been a gloomy month for me. Last May, it all changed. It was my first May with our first granddaughter, Kaleo. So, to kick off a brighter May, we got to babysit her this past weekend.
When I got to creating, my mood went to light and airy. Bright spring colors and lots of white space, this is one of my favorite easy peasy cards ever. I think I will be using my stencils more often!

I rarely have the proper color of pearls to use, so I make them myself. You can color white or cream pearls with copic markers to customize for your project!
