Can't beat bright summer days or a bright summery card! And on a recent summer day at the lake that little one who brightens my day set off to explore. After about 5 minutes of playing on a blanket she went off to see the sights - so many interesting things to see on the lawn you know. She was undaunted by the vast expanse in front of her and just kept crawling and crawling. My daughter snapped this picture and it reminded me of Andrew Wyeth's painting Christina's World! But it won't be long and she will be running across that lawn!
I am delighted to be hosting at Freshly Made Sketches this week! Sure hope you will join us!
Very pretty! Love the vellum and the position of your stamps. What a sweet photo of Emma. Andrew Wyeth - heehee!
