Morning Hymn – a new page set at SBE!

By Mandy | Published: June 27, 2010

Every once in a great while I am able to get out of bed and sneak downstairs without the children noticing. I make a cup of coffee and slip out to the deck. The dampness of the seat doesn’t bother me; the amazing sunrise takes precedent over any discomfort I may have. Of course, these times are infrequent and short-lived…which makes them all the more special. Just such a morning inspired this kit.  It’s new today at SBE.

It includes fifteen backgrounds (ten patterned and five worn/torn solids), a button bracket, a buckle wrap, three chipboard circles, four unique photo corners, a felt vine, three flower sticks, eleven frames, a glitter splat, a journal spot, a matte, a stitched border, ribboned sunshine, three chipboard hearts, tied yarn, a vertical border, three word arts and two photo wraps.

Some inspiration from very talented scrappers…

I’m giving one away…if you’d like a chance to win Morning Hymn, jump on over to my Facebook page.  Thanks for looking and have a wonderful weekend!
