One seed can start a garden, one candle can light a room, one step can begin a journey, one conversation can start a friendship, one smile from a handmade card can lift one's SPIRIT!

MIM # 161 and Merry Monday

Here is what I came up with:
I wanted something peaceful...I chose aqua mist,
Hawaiian shores and tropical teal.
the stars are from Super Stars.
 
I am also going to enter this in the Merry Monday Challenge
asking for a decorated Christmas word on your card...mine just happens to be sponged and then die cut.
 
Thanks for taking a look!
Heart Hugs,
Colleen
