I needed to make & send out a couple of sympathy cards this week! So this is the card that I whipped up. This is a new stamp set in the Occasions Catalog called- 'Golden Afternoon'- pg. 31.
When I first looked at this set I was thinking that the trees aren't really like we have around here. But honestly- there is a tree on a curve about 1 1/2 miles from our home that is almost like this! I looked at it while driving home from taking the boys to school last week & was just shocked that it was so similar.
But I REALLY like the birds in this stamp set & I love all of the words!! I often sending Thinking of You cards....as they can be used for so many different occasions!

Yesterday I just had Masen & Ainslee here for the day. They then went with us last night to set up tables & chairs in SE for my meeting on Sunday. When we got done there we took them home & then ran to town & ate supper at the Copper Lantern. When we got home I worked on stamping stuff & finally called it a night.
As we are up early this morning in the bitter cold to mark, sort & sell hogs at 5:00 a.m. The semi pulled in here last night about 9 & slept here- so hoping the driveways aren't drifted in the morning & all goes well.
When I get in later this morning from helping Deke on the farm, I'll then spend the rest of my day working on farm bookwork!
I hope you have a SPECIAL Saturday!!
Happy Stamping!

My goodness, that is beautiful! I wouldn't have even considered this stamp set, but now, seeing how wonderful it looks, I may have to change my mind.
