Smooth Sailing.....FMS440






I kept my card soft and easy today because after several chilly days the sun came out and the lake was calling.  Just cruising around helps you forget about all the craziness in this world for a while.

                                               


And this summer we have a new scout ready to guide us back to the marina......seems like yesterday that Miss Emma was peeking over that railing.....


Will loved his first boat ride!






Amy's sketch this week at Freshly Made Sketches has a lot of possibilities!  Hope you join us!


Stamp Set: Dandelion Wishes
Ink: Gray Granite

Linda, it's sad to need a sympathy card, but knowing you have one this wonderful at the ready lightens the load a little. I see these happy little seeds as prayers today!
There is nothing quite as relaxing as a cruise on a pontoon... especially fun with your wee Willy as the first mate!

Such a lovely card Linda. And a really good use of that set. You make me wish we had a boat, but here, we would be using the river and it is already, and has been for a couple months, so very crowded. Last week there was a mile of cars that couldn't even get in as it was full.

I love how you've used this stamp set with the sketch! Very clever! And those pictures of the lake make me feel more relaxed. Thanks!

I am so with you on the lake therapy! We've been out a few times but alas it has rained all this week so far.
I came to say that your soft and delicate card is so pretty. Perfect for a sympathy card, with the pastels and airy design.

This is such a gorgeous card Linda! I just love that dandelion and the pretty purple accents! Such a great take on the sketch! Looks like an amazing time at the cottage!!! So peaceful out on the water!
