Quotations

Have been AWOL for quite a few weeks now but am gradually crawling out of the dark tunnel. My effort this week is a simple card to stand in front of a fabulous photo I have of my 2 beautiful grandchildren, taken last Christmas.
The images have been taken from the CD Grandma's Button Box by Katy Sue Designs. Some of the embellishments have been taken from various CA digikits. The quote is in my 'quote book' where I copy useful verses and quotations when I see them.
