Greetings! Welcome to another Texas Tuesday, hosted on the first and third Tuesdays of each month. James and I just got back into town yesterday from a little vacation to the Bay area of California, so I had city skylines and “Greetings from” on my mind. I then browsed the sketch blogs in my Google reader and the Mojo Monday Sketch #178 inspired me to create this quick little card. We enjoyed our getaway, but the huge smile that lit up Jessica’s face when we arrived home in Austin after 4.5 days apart was the best part of our trip. Stay tuned for pictures from our trip.
