Reach to the Stars

Hey there!!!  Hope all is well with you wherever you are.  We are just back to school after two weeks holiday.  We (as in myself and 4 teenagers) spent the first week at the beach and the weather was just perfect.  Beautiful autumn days starting with gorgeous sunrises.  For me the best time of the day at the beach is early in the morning when there is still a chill in the air and no one around with the sun coming up. I love leaving the first footprints in the sand.  It was a week of relaxing, reading books, watching movies and playing board games with the kids.  Really lucky to be able to do this and privileged  to spend such times with the kids.

Now I am back to work and have been working longer hours, which I have to say I am struggling with a little.  Its only for a little while so I shan't complain.

The card I am sharing today uses the lovely stamp set called "you Inspire Me" from Kennedy Grace Creations.  It also features the very pretty sequin mix called "Pink Champagne".  I turned it into a fun shaker card which works perfectly with this sentiment.


Hope to see you back again soon

Wonderful card Karen! Your time off sounds wonderful as well though I still find it odd you talk autumn when we are talking spring here.

This is gorgeous Karen. Love the gingham and the shaker. How did you make a star shaker?! Too clever!! Thinking of you hunny and wishing you a speedy recovery. Hugs, Wends x
