What a fun sketch, Ally! I knew right away I wanted to use this very cool retro bike image from 100 Proof Press. But it took some time to find all the supporting evidence! Luckily I hoard DP and it was a matter of looking into the 12x12's to find maps, both road maps and city plat maps...a couple of fun license plate wisdom and a wonderful photo DP of a winding, hilly road out in the country. I threw in an oHIo license plate for fun!
We've all heard that proverb about the journey being the reward...I want to NeVeR stop journeying...I want to find new hills to climb, new challenges to conquer, new roads I haven't ridden and it will be on two wheels under my own power! Happy Trails...and please let me know what's your 'make some happy'!

My favorite thing to do is Hike! The reward of reaching the top and seeing the view is usually amazing! But my challenge right now is moving in 2 weeks to a home with a larger yard so we can "work the soil with a huge garden and plant some fruit trees". Hubby says I will be canning and freezing come summer! : ) How sweet for all this pretty dp to work with your passion in life-the bicycle! I love the off centered circle inside the other circle~

Wonderful card. At first glance, I thought maybe this was an announcement, so I had to read your story. Just a goal and not an announcement? It's great and all your elements are super, and right in the "Susan Style".
