I love this photo of a mother and son

Dinner Date with Isabella and Maggie

Waiting for dinner, watching boats and feeding ducks.  We went to Newport Bay in Portland along the river, which is a floating restaurant.  It was a wonderful and beautiful evening.

Isabella laughing as she shares her ice cream with Papa

My beautiful daughter in law, Margarita (I call her Margie)



Thumbs up on her 2nd ice cream dessert in one evening, which by the way is not vanilla - it is "white" according to her

July Blog Hop - 2011

The inspiration photograph lead me to use the colors of the drapery and walls as well as the butterfly seen on the pillow for both of my card. The layout that inspired me was one from a gorgeous card created by Kharmagirl, which can be seen at http://stampingalatte.blogspot.com/2011/07/july-sfytt-is-here.html  Her creation is stunning by the way and well worth the time to go look.
