Simplicity: a Note Card Collection

Hello everyone!

I hope your week is off to a great start.
We have been having more lovely freezing rain and sleet :(
You know, I think I need to return that calendar I purchased in January...
...I'm pretty sure it's defective!

Anyway, the bright spot will be joining in the fun over at Vee's Note Card Party!

So...when I was thinking about a theme for my note cards,

my first thought was spring...well of course!

That is what's on most our minds, isn't it?

But as I was looking through my photos, I found so many that I had taken at our cabin...

...where life is slow and simple.

What do you think of when you think of simplicity?

This is my box cover.
I wanted to give the photos some "artsy" effects so I played around a bit with them.
I love the Waterlogue app that many of you are using these days.
I don't have an iphone so I just experimented using Photoscape and Picmonkey together.



Checkers, anyone?
This is where my grandchildren learned how to play...
...on the front porch of the cabin.

And no... this is not where I sit to drink my moonshine...
...I do that inside where no one can see me.

Surely you know I'm kidding, right?

During the warmer months, the road to the cabin is lined with a variety of wildflowers.
I love picking them and placing them in simple vessels like this old wooden bucket.

The original version of this photo was in one of my first posts...
...where I took you on a little tour of Fancy Gap.

This photo in it's original form was also in that same post.
I call it serenity.

I love what The Message version of the Bible says about simplicity...

..."A simple life in the Fear-of-God
    is better than a rich life with a ton of headaches".

Proverbs 15:16 

The Message

Blessings, sweet friends!
