May Note Card Party



It's party time!  Time for Vee's Note Card Party which is on the third Wednesday of each month.  Can you believe we're that far into May already?  I sure can't.


I was looking through my posts, trying to find something that I hadn't
used before.  The photos I picked out seemed to have a certain
something in common.   


I'd never really gave it much thought before, but a lot of our favorite
places to visit have water in some form.  It may be a lake, park,
river or creek as shown in these 4 photos.
 

Thanks, Vee, for hosting this fun party!  To see some really 
wonderful photos made into note cards, just hop over to Vee's 
place at A Haven for Vee.  

Thanks for stopping by!
Until next time...

Don't forget to let me know if you want to be entered in my drawing!
The deadline is the end of the day Friday.  I'll announce the winner
Monday.  To enter, you only need to be a follower, that's it!

    These are all beautiful. But oh my gosh the first one, I LOVE it!!!! The combination of man's jet trails and God's sky is gorgeous. Don't you just love it when everything comes together like this?

    Those intersecting contrails and cloud formations make an amazing photo. You have a good eye for knowing that it would. Wonderful set of note cards ! Get them printed.

    They're all beautiful photos, Cheryl, but my favorite is the bridge! Is that a bridge over the Missouri? I don't recognize it. Have a nice day! Twyla

    We not only like to be around water, I think looking at it can have the same calming effect.
    Stunning photos for your notecards.

    These are beautiful notecards. Water seems to add interest to any picture. I think it's because water is so essential to our lives. Fine photo work.
