Go For It! Have you ever been in a position where you thought, ah heck, I’m going to go for it!
Yesterday I posted this card on Facebook because it holds a special meaning to me, and it came out so beautifully. I hope it will resonate with you as well. When I was in the girl scouts (many moons ago lol) I remember I attended an outing to a farm where we were able to ride horses. If you have never rode a horse or been in the presence of one they are absolutely magnificent animals.
During the day our entire group enjoyed riding horses at this farm. At the end of the day they asked if anyone would want to come back and learn more about horses, and go riding for an entire day. I thought, “go for it!” So I raised my hand with a handful of others in my group . Yes, I was the lucky person that could come back and spend the entire day with the horse and going for more horseback rides! .I was SO excited!
When I got back to the farm before I was so excited to ride the horse. What I didn’t know was that before I could ride the horse I needed to learn how to feed it, brush it, put the saddle on, etc. Go For It! I told myself, as I was nervous being around this huge animal and going out of my comfort zone learning something I’ve never learned before.
It’s funny I can remember standing in the barn with the horse hooked up to the stall where I learned about what horses eat and how nervous I was having the horse take food from my hand. I also learned how to pick up after them (if you know what I mean lol, the not so fun part), brush the horse, learned how they “shoe” the horses and mostly it taught me to Go For It! Follow my dreams. Follow my passions. And it’s ok to go out of your comfort zone.
The Stampin’ Up! Occasions catalog released the Let It Ride stamp set and The best part is that this stamp set has been carried into the Annual 2019-2020 Stampin’ Up! Catalog! So excited about that aren’t you? To purchase the Let It Ride “cling” style stamp set you can do so here. Naturally I was drawn to this stamp set because It resonated with a fond memory. That’s one of the best things about paper crafting. Something so little can draw us into such inspiration. That is one of the things I personally appreciate about stamping it can really inspire you to draw on a wonderful experience and create a beautiful piece of “art” to share with the world whether it’s in a handmade card or a beautiful scrapbook page stamping allows us to express ourselves in a limitless way, like “Living as if someone left the gates of the pasture open!” I invite you to go out of your comfort zone and Go For It living as if someone left the gate open with your creativity and life itself!
