Nice challenge, Holly! I suspect many of us where stretching our creative muscles on this one. And I hope I am legal with the 'teenyest', tiniest bit of trim across the top...
I took this opportunity to make a Father's Day card for my Daddy. And if I get it in the mail today, it just might make it on time this year!!! Don't you just love the quote from Emerson, "The Years tell us much the Day's never knew". I stamped it onto a Memory Box paper, dry embossing with the 'bug and nestability. Versamark with Rust embossing powder.
Thanks so much for stopping by. And let me know what you think.

Your mighty collection of stamps always inspire me with a thoughtful sentiment, a moment of beauty, or a philosophy for the heart.

Susan, this is a CAS beauty! Leaves fly off the trees, so could not this be used for today's CAS challenge - things that fly. I love that senti too. It says soooo much.
I'm so happy to see you create again, I so missed you.
