Life is good! I must confess that I'm a little terrified of retirement (52 days, but who's counting!). I'm not worried about what comes next, more of what I'm leaving behind. But isn't life about making change? I felt the same way when Steve swept me off my feet and I went from being decidedly single to being a partner - and that certainly worked out wonderfully! So, my mantra these days is to "have courage" and keep focused on what is ahead.
Hugs!!

What a wonderful card. Such a great scene you created.
I'm sure you will manage retirement just fine. :)
This is such a sweet card, Sharli. I love all of the elements and colours. I'm looking forward to hearing how you spend your retirement.
This is a lovely card, Sharli. I like the scene, it's so peaceful. Thanks for sharing. You know, you could say of retirement, once you get there is why the heck did I wait so long! I'm sure you will love it!
What a great bike and fun card for the retiree! how exciting that you are just 52 days away from it yourself!!! I'm counting down 3 years - and I can't wait to not have to go to work and do what I want all day long!
Adorable card...love that bicycle and your background is so sweet. I am sure your card will be loved!
You asked me about the Inktense colored pencils, they are amazing. I used them with a water brush and brushed up against the pencil lead and painted with them. You can also color with them and then add a bit of water to make more vibrant color. Here is a link to Amazon where I bought mine.

I bought the 72 color pack, it was the best deal at the time. Enjoy!
What a great card! You created such a beautiful scene and it really makes me want the warmer weather to get here quickly! Hope you are well. :)
Sharli, your beautiful card makes me feel like I'm riding on a Spring day!
Retirement is a giant leap of faith. You will make it a wonderful stage of your life. Wishing you all God's blessings!
