Vintage Leaves

I am a little slow getting started today.  We made it back from Maine about midnight last night, so I slept in a little bit.

Here is another card off of the display boards last month.  This stamp set is an awesome one to use with the emboss resist technique.



I know I have said it before but Vintage Leaves is going to get a workout this fall!!

We started our day quite early yesterday at Niagara Falls.  We were up at 6:00 (5:00 our time) and out the hotel door by 7:00 to visit the Falls.  This was a great plan because they are not very busy on a Sunday morning.  Last year when we were here on a Saturday evening you could not get anywhere near the railing to take any sort of pictures.


No selfie stick here as our daughter was able to take our picture!!


She on the other hand has perfected the art of taking selflies without a selfie stick or mono pads as they are called in Maine.  Not nearly as fun of a name!!



I really wanted to go on the Maiden of the Mist boat ride where they take you right up to the Falls, but that was not to be this trip!!


Even though it was a bright sunny day, it is still very misty there.  Last year  it was raining and at night so I was very glad to see them in the day light and without rain.


We stayed at the falls for a couple of hours and then headed home.  We weren't sure we would actually make it home yesterday, but we made great time . . . no construction stops and not a lot of traffic!!  It was a great 10 days but I am glad to be home!!

Every day is a gift . . . make the most of the gift you have been given today!!

Happy Stamping!!
