This is for the Crafters of Faith monthly challenge. For March, Barbara is our hostess. She chose the verse Jeremiah 29:11 and a theme of living life to the fullest and/or what you plan for the future.
When I saw the challenge, I knew exactly what I wanted to do, but that plan did not work out. Plan B was right either. Finally, this card expresses my thoughts for the challenge. I live life to the fullest by appreciating & rejoicing in each new day and finding something good in it. Every day is a gift, thatâs why it is called the present.
Also, we hope to plan another family vacation for all of us. The best vacation our family had all together was to Lake Tahoe. Now that two out of our three kids live in other states from us and each other, it might be more difficult to get us all in one place at the same time. The Lord knows the plans He has for us, so we will be glad & rejoice in that day. TFL

Diane- I love this card and your message. Growing up in Northern California, we also had great vacations in Tahoe. Your beautiful card captures the essence of those trips!

What a wonderful image for your verse, Diane. Wonderfully watercolored too! Your overall design looks amazing. I have never set an eyelet but they sure look great on your verse banner
