Pomp and Sustenance: Monday Montage 162

Welcome to the Monday Montage Blog Hop. I hope that you find something that inspires you to create and brings you happiness to see the beautiful creations.

Starting Week 4 of working from home. It is so crazy to think about the new norm I stay at home except for exercise, taking the dog out and a bi-weekly trip to the grocery store for fresh veggies, fruit and dairy. I see more neighbors than ever before - all at a 6ft distance :)

I went back to the main catalog again for my card this week. Butterfly Gala. What a beautiful symbol of hope. They start out as that crazy fun little caterpillar and then they wrap themselves up for a while, you wonder if they will make it through the chrysallis stage. What a beautiful miracle it is when they come out as a graceful butterfly. Whenever I seem them flitting around I pause to watch. Butterflies make me happy!

Stamps - Butterfly Gala

Ink - Versamark, Black

Paper - Crushed Curry, Whisper White, Basic Black

Accessories - Stampin' Blends, White gel pen, White Embossing Powder, Peaceful Poppy Sequins, Stitched Shapes Dies, Butterfly dual punch.

I participated in the World Wide fast as requested by President Nelson of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. This week I have studied the Four Gospels surrounding Christs Crucifixion and Resurrection. Even though we haven't been able to go to church, I feel like my studies at home have intensified and I have felt a stronger relationship with my Savior and the Holy Ghost. God's ways are mysterious for sure and definitely for our good.

Stay safe, stay healthy and stay positive. We will get through this and thanks so much for stopping by and hanging out for a few minutes with the Monday Montage group.
