Slowly getting back into my fall groove!  My brain seems to shut down during the summer months and I found myself busy packing and getting ready for possession of a Lakehouse property that my husband and I purchased! It's so exciting to have this little retreat getaway to come to..and one of the many bonuses is...it's 55 minutes door to door!!!  Here's a little picture of our first visitor! and our evening view last night ~ the moonlight dancing on the lake!  The goodness of God shines light in the darkness!   and now onto this sweet card that I created for a large card order!  I used the Silhouette Scenes & coordinating Sweet Silhouette Dies along with the sentiment from Sealed With Love stamp set.  It's so hard to tell that the leaves and the umbrella glitter from using Wink of Stella! If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask ~ happy to help!!! Thanks So much for popping by ~ Have a blessed Day! If you live in Winn...

I'm doing great, I'm strong in body mind and soul and I plan on remaining that way!
