My heart breaks for all those affected by the
tragedy in Pittsburgh.
There is just too much hate in the world right now. I will continue to smile
and say hello to everyone I meet though because you never know what a positive impact
that could have. Perhaps it’s the only positive thing they have received and
need it more than you will ever know.
But life goes on and we must continue
the best we can. It’s a beautiful Monday here in Ontario….after a couple nasty days of rain
and cold wind. Last Friday we went out near Rondeau Park
to a place called Keith McLeans Conservation area. A farmer donated all his
land to the area so others could enjoy it free of charge. There is a rare
visitor there in the marsh so we went to see if we could find it …..and we did.
Here’s the Hudsonian Godwit we saw.
He uses that long beak for finding leeches in
the muck.
Now for the card that I meant to post last Friday
but forgot. Our grandson turned 14 on Saturday so this is the card I made for
him.
The airplane and the Sky sentiment are from a
Stampin’ Up set that I borrowed from my card making friend. The cloud stamp is
from another set and the ‘you’re’ is from a very old Stamping Bella stamp that
I covered up the rest so only the ‘you’re’ was stamped. The 14 is from the
stash. The trees are from an old wooden set that are very close to the Stampin’
Up “lovely as a tree’ stamp set that I wished I owned, but do not. The
background is two pieces of paper taped together at the back...and the top one is a light blue, not green....grrrrr to the bad lighting again. I wanted just the
top of the trees to show. The large happy birthday was die cut with a Sizzix
set. I die cut it twice and then glued them together to make them thicker.
That’s
all for a wonderful fall day, October 29, 2018.
Cheers
Violet
