This weekend I did a lot of little projects including this one. I've had this quote in my mind quite a bit lately so it was a natural choice. While not profound, it seems to sum up life right now. Looking forward to the flower but we have had plenty of sunshine since the snows! Too bad you can't see the nice pearl ex shimmer to the card.

This is another tag for my DH. Since we moved to Az, he now has the freedom to play his favorite sport (?) any time he wishes :angel:

My hubby so wishes our weather would improve that he and his buddy are going out tomorrow even with temps in the 40's! They have only been able to play once since Thanksgiving.

Nice one! I still don't know how you fit so much in such a little space. Do you do a lot of scanning to reduce things in size?

Thanks, Marianne. The only thing I scanned and made smaller on this one is the Statue of Liberty. Everything else came from my box of miscellaneous stuff.
