 Playtime watercolors postcard

Yesterday, I created postcards. After typing in each recipient's address on the postcard's front, I printed them off in sets of 4 on 8 1/2 x 11 sheets of cover/card stock paper using Publisher's postcard format. I then wrote a note to each of my five grandkids to drop in the mail today.

 

To make them, I scanned into my computer a vintage watercolor paint tin (with an unused paint palette and paintbrush inside), that I purchased at an antique sale, then inserted clipart of a tin can filled with paintbrushes. I think my 3 granddaughters and two grandsons will have fun receiving them in their mailbox in a few days.

Today's mileage: The day slipped away from me, so my walk didn't happen today either. Tomorrow I'll be back on track, for sure.

Total monthly mileage: 48.25 miles… same as yesterday 

Bible reading? Continued to read about Moses and the plagues God brought upon Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, and his people.
