SSW #230 and Stamp Fairy

Everyone ready for Halloween???  I must admit I still have to deck our my car for Trunk of Treat, it will be a busy few days!!  I am ready with my card for this week's Challenge over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday.  Stamp Fairy is our Sponsor this week AND there are SO MANY awesomely cute images to choose from!!

Here is our Sketch...

and here is my card =)

I know just the little girl who this card will go to...  Must Mail Today!!

I've been unemployed for a few months and am happy to say I will be back to work in the next week or two - Praise God for His faithfulness!!  Last week, I went to the Cape to visit one of my Mom's friends (while my days are still free...), she lives in Orleans, does not drive, and at 81 years young, rides her bike EVERYWHERE she needs to go.  I wanted to share a few pics of her "neighborhood"...
I LOVE the Self Service Flower and Cranberry Stands - and I will say, we made a purchase at both!!  The cranberries are from a family bog on the road leading in to her house.  Tasted great in my stuffing last night!!

Her home is a little piece of Heaven here on Earth...

This week's prize is a $10 Gift Certificate to Stamp Fairy!!  I hope you will play along with us!!

Blessings to you all!!

  1. A super image Sally and a gorgeous card. Love the papers! I also love your little stories of where you stay. More beautiful pics and I love the idea of a fresh cranberry stall, nothing like that in Scotland, I have to make do with a bag of dried ones from the health food shop - not quite the same really!
