Heavenly Retreat

I am currently out of town on a retreat with some of my favorite people in the world (all 300 or so of them!). I'm at our church's Missions Conference with dear friends who serve in different parts of the world. We only get together every two years so this week is a real treat for me and my family. And being close to the Pacific ocean is a big plus too. There is nothing like it to remind me of the vastness of God. It truly is a picture of heaven where we are right now.

My card today is for this week's Card Patterns' sketch:

And here's my card using an image from our sponsor, Blackleaf Studios. The sentiment is by SRM Stickers.
