Hello friends. How is everyone? It has cooled down in Southern CA; which I am so grateful. I love the Spring and Fall. I do not like the hot weather; which we have had a lot of this year.
We were on vacation in Florida for the last two weeks of October, visiting with family. It was a lot cooler there than I expected; but not really cold. I was grateful that we didn't have any storms or hurricanes while were there. We were staying at Destin, FL on the beach; so we would have been sitting ducks with water surrounding us. My phone didn't want to work while we were there; which I think was due to all the water around us.
It is good to be back home and I am more than ready to create with Ching-Chou Kuik images. I took the month of October off; except for posting a few of the creations I had already finished before I took time off. I really needed the break; more for my mental health than anything else. I needed some down time from creating every week.
I have created a card with a Winter scene for our Ching-Chou Kuik November Monthly Blog challenge. We would love for you to join us. You have an option of Christmas or Winter. I have been wanting to use this digi for a long time. It is Ching-Chou Kuik "New Leaves". It looks like winter to me; right before Spring starts.
November Challenge - Christmas or Winter
