Description: I took this photo in Costa Rica at the La Paz Waterfall Gardens Butterfly Garden. It was a freak moment when my camera was poised and this butterfly just happened to land profile on this flower. I've never take a picture like this before and I doubt I ever will again. Pura Vida is the mantra for the people of Costa Rica. It means anything and everything, depending on the situation. The literal translation of Pura Vida is Pure Life which perfectly describes the culture, the people, and the beauty of Costa Rica.

Description: I went a little silly on this one and I'm proud of how it turned out... Journaling reads: My Dream Day... sleep in uninterrupted until 9 o'clock, leisurely sip venti amaretto latte while reading the morning paper, hop in my 2008 Jaguar s-type and head off to my mani/pedi appointment, eat delicious lunch followed by shopping with the girls (money no object), hour-long massage to conclude the afternoon, hit the bookstore for some book browsing, hurry home for a romantic dinner with the Mr. followed by some *private time* (wink wink). Tag says: 100% authentic dreamer Credits: ~ green paper from Danielle Young's "Bungalow" kit @ oscraps ~ denim pocket, frayed tag, string, hand-stamped alpha, and antiquated brushes by Michelle Coleman @ LDD ~ orange flower by SaraAmarie in the "Stand Up" kit ~ orange tab w/ staples from Robin Carlton's "Tab--You're It" collection @ SSD ~ stock photos from internet ~ fonts are linenstroke and SF-Heather
