Think positive...

Well, I'm back from my holiday and I'm somewhat sorted.  We had a lovely stay in Charleston....lots to see and do and the weather was fabulous.  I think the best part was the food....some amazing restaurants there.  I think I might wait a while until I step on the scales!


The temperatures have really dropped, there are leaves all over the ground and the skies are grey....so how about a card to remind us that spring is on the way!  Notice I just skipped over winter....not my favourite time of year!

Supplies used:
LOTV stamp - Love Grows - coloured with water colours
Sentiment from Verve Stamps - Blue Skies collection
Spellbinders die - Decorative Labels One
Papers, ribbon and charm from stash

Thanks for stopping by.  Enjoy the fall days....and think of spring!
