Minimalist Thanks

Sometimes, less really is more. I just love this grass stamp from the set "Inspired by Nature" It's very calming. I'm working on Thank You cards to donate to a church auction and this is one I came up with today. The birds are from Eastern Influences and are stamped on the same plane as the grass, but in a contrasting/highlighting color. The card actually stood on its own, but I needed the sentiment. Ovals seemed to fit the tranquility of the scene, so Oval punches it was. Vanilla CS and Taffeta ribbon were less-harsh than the starkness of Whisper White, so I went with it. Enjoy
