AUGUST 2016 INSPIRATION CHALLENGE AT THE HOUSE THAT STAMPS BUILT

Happy Wednesday, blog friends!!!  

We're working on an inspiration photo this week at The House and we're all hoping you'll join us.  


I grew up on Lake Champlain and each August, when this moon appeared, it was known as the "August Moon".  We used to have beach parties...built a big beach fire and someone would always have a guitar, so we'd sign and laugh and....fall in love under the August moon.  Romance was short lived after we all went back to school, but oh, those last summer nights!!!! The memories and friends last a lifetime.  

I was totally inspired by the entire image and, of course, the moon was the focal part.   RI Stamps #3602-P "First Light", #3412-C "Gulls in Flight" and for the sentiment, RI# 1101-F "Retirement".  


Come on over and play along....just grab some inspiration from the photo and enter your card at The House That Stamps Built.  

Don't miss these talented ladies....they've got some awesomeness to show you
