On the road to happiness...

Here we go, it's Saturday again, and I don't have any plans or visitors so far.  I thought perhaps I could get some more accomplished on my gardens, except it's raining.  They're pretty much done for the year now, so I'm starting to clear them out and cut them down.  That's the negative for this time of year, but truly...I love the cooler temperatures and the smell of fall in the air.

 
And then of course, there's always the fall weddings!  My nephew is getting married in October, so I just had to make up a card with this lovely image from Just Inklined,  titled Wedding Carriage.  Isn't it adorable....and such fun to colour too!  Copics again, and some DI for the edges and the frame, and then some flowers and a pretty bow for the special occasion.

Supplied used:
Papers from Pink Paislee - Queen Bee collection
Spellbinders dies - Labels Twelve and Marvelous Squares
Martha Stewart punch - Pine Branch
Flowers, gems and ribbon - from my stash

Have yourselves a wonderful weekend, and with a bit of luck maybe a bit of time for crafting!  For myself, I guess there is no excuse now.....housework it is....
