Coming Home to Sunshine - Card concept #55

Here is a sunshiny card, "fresh from the field," as you might say.
It says, "The Best Journey Always Takes us Home"
 
Doesn't it, though?
I've always loved that drive through country fields.
Even after years, I still find myself avoiding all the old potholes
even though they've now repaved the road.
An adventure is a very fine thing.
But the return home afterwards always seems to satisfy,
when you know you're coming back to a place of love,
warmth, security, self-reliance and acceptance.
 
 
 
 
 
 
This take is a classy interpretation; clean and straightforward,
but not-quite CAS.
 
 
 
 
Materials Used on this Card:
Cardstock {Rustic white, Smoky Shadow - Papertrey Ink}
Patterned paper {Ninth Street by The Paper Studio}
ATC Vintage Card {Legacy (2015) by Authentique}
Antique Brass brads and Wooden Spool {The Paper Studio}
Champagne Satin Ribbon {Robert Stanley}
Paper Rose {Recollections}
