Well it is raining cats and dogs here in RI and still very cool, I will be glad when we get some warm weather.My grandmother who has long passed away was the spiritual matriarch of the family. She was a walking book of proverbs. One was a glass of water half filled, she asked me, "what do you see" is it half empty or half full? Because what you see today is how you will see tomorrows trials and troubles all your life! With God in your life that glass is half full, you have hope, you have trust in the Savior that called you by name to be His that through all your trials and troubles there is a divine purpose and though it may not feel good it will do good for us who believe. I saw that glass half full and in all my trials I had a spirit of joy because I had a divine well that would never run dry, I never saw my life as going empty but being filled up by the power of God's almighty Spirit that dwells in me because I believed.
Stamp by Stamping Up "Paris in Spring" colored with markers (bic) stickles, liquid pearls on the dog, crystal effects on the scooter and glasses.
Have a Blessed Day

This is great, I love the different panels. That little doggie is too cute!
I miss my grandmother so much on some days, she passed on some very important lessons and words of wisdom that I try to remember to put into practice on a daily basis.
I like your grandma! I like your card too; it's really a fun image. I like how you did the puffs of exhaust. I wish I had your cool weather. It's 90 degrees here and I'm sweltering.

Nice story to go along with this cute card. I especially like how you've placed the poodle in a circle in the bottom left corner. Makes a great layout that way.
