I think I live in a perfect place for ME... it is my world... and I love it.. every bit of it.. I live in the mountains but have views on our land of 360 degree views of mountains... beautiful ones too... Did you knw that the highest mountain on the east coast is in NC... it is Mount Mitchell... and when it snows we can see the mountain off in the distance... it is lovely. And they are purple mountains too.. with the green when you are closer.. it is beautiful where I live to me... the Spring is a wonderful time... the pink dogwoods in our yard are prolifically blooming in these deep pink colors.. and then all of a sudden you see a white one blooming off in the distance... our lawn is surrounded by every color azalea you can think of.. I think there has to be over 25 different varieties of them surrounding the space between our lawn and the natural woods surrounding the house area of our farm... Can you tell I am in love with where I live... it is our dream to have a farm and to live in the mountains... and now we do... DREAMS do come true...
To see how I created this card, please go to my blog to see it... thanks for looking at my card... and have a wonderful week-end...
Love, Light and Peace... Bonnie

Wow Bonnie - you sure have painted an idyllic scene both in your card and in my mind. Gorgeous card - so like a misty mountain morning! How wonderful to be able to live (and create so beautifully in) your dream.

how adorable Bonnie, sometimes I wished I lived in the mountains, like mid July and August when we hit 110 degrees. Whew not sure if low 20's or high 100's are worse, but I know I would HATE to live in snow all winter so I will stay with the high 100's

Blessings to you Bonnie!!! Whether it is where you live, or your general attitude, you share a lot of your joy on this site. I believe it is very beautiful where you live and would like to visit that area some day. Your card is beautiful and I'm sure you get a lot of influence for a lot of your cards from your surrounding area. Thanks for sharing you beauty.

You have captured your feelings and site in your beautiful card, Bonnie! From your description and card, I can picture it all. I love your 'torn" mountains and pretty blossoms. So lovely!

Bonnie, this is a beautiful creation and I can imagine your beautiful surroundings are a constant inspiration for the many floral cards you create! Love your torn layers and then the dogwood in the foreground - great job!
