PEACE

Howdy Crafters - I hope your day is going well for you... here is my Peace card - think of how peaceful it would be riding in a hot air balloon on a nice clear, sunny day. Of course, you would not find me up there in that hot air balloon, but my MIL, Harriette,  had riding in a hot air balloon on her bucket list and my husband Richard and his siblings took mom up for this adventure for her 90th Birthday- she so loved it. Mom died at the age of 95. Have a blessed week - Gail

Never-the-less - I like the dimension of this card. I am pleased with my choice of just a touch of glitter glue added to make the lamp post light up. Thanks for stopping by and have a blessed day. ~ Gail ~
