Missing you...

Hello friend!

How is your Monday going?

It's a beautiful, sunshiny day here on the Oregon coast

today and I've been listening to the "music" of

my grandson's, and their friends,

playing outside all day.  :)

I love summertime!!

I have a new card to share with you today,

that is a bit of a detour from what I usually do, I think.

It doesn't have near the bling or the embellies that my cards

normally have, but I love how it turned out.  I hope you do, too!!

This digital image is one that comes from 

A Day for Daisies and is called "Bewildered B."

Her expression looks a bit sad to me, thus the sentiment.

*please click on the photos to enlarge*

She's so elegant looking and has a vintage feel to me,

 so I loved her, and couldn't wait to color her!

I used ribbon to form the ruffle for her dress and her hair

is so beautifully coiffed, that I thought adding the flower

to it would finish it off nicely.
