A Forever Kind of Love

Today I have some exciting news!  Karen and Denise have invited me to be on the DT at Digitally 'Sweet' Challenges!  This is such a perfect fit for me when we travel.  I can satisfy my creative soul without carrying all my craft supplies.  Thank you so much ladies; I'm looking forward to another new adventure!

The theme of our challenge this week is 'Love Is In The Air'.  This page is dedicated to my wonderful husband.  In Nov. we will have been married 50 years.  Lots of major ups and a few major downs, LOL.  By the grace of God, we have not only survived, but we have both become better persons through learning the 'give and take' of relationships. 

I have used the 'Fall Is In The Air' kit from Template Dreams.  This kit is gorgeous!  It lends itself to almost any theme.  The hearts are my own.


We are sponsored by Template Dreams this week.  The winner will receive a $5 GC for some GOODIES!

challenges:
Moving Along w/the Times: Love is in the Air
Crafty Creations: #209 Love and/or Hearts
Deep Ocean Challenges: #45 Letter 'B'   (Blue paper)
Tuesday Alchemy: My Hearts All a Flutter
Celebrate the occasion: #99 Valentine/Anything Goes
