Back to the basics for a few swaps..tags, ATCs (birds in hats! ) and cards..doing a little destashing at the same time..

     

Have had these graphic 45 papers (below) for a while. As we all do, just kept staring at them and finally I decided no matter what I do with them ...I HAVE TO USE THEM!!! so just create something..and I DID!

punkins and dreams...

My sweet JET painting his punkin...what an artist!these two sweet babies are the fulfillment of my dreams and prayers,,not having children of my own, but being married to the man of my dreams... the only thing missing was grandkids one day...well in comes our best and closest friends (younger than us yet waited to have children many years themselves ...) and VOILA after being married for 32 years I HAVE GRAND BABIES!! they are the sweetest most precious gift in the world. Thank you Lord for hearing my prayers and answering it in the way I never expected! The stories of our lives are never finished till God says so!!! 

         Sydney ..sweet as pink sugah!

A little October beauty in my backyard!

Feel free to use this in your art work!!  

The beauty of the world around me never ceases to amaze me.God's creation is so perfect,beyond my imagination,every detail set in perfect harmony. This is the first day of my week away from my job and I need to be renewed.  I love my job, but it does take alot out of me to see the devastation this disease brings on families( Alzheimer's and other types of dementia). I have said goodbye to too many in the past few weeks and seen too many who are way to young to be afflicted. YET,I KNOW GOD IS IN CONTROL and He has the small details perfectly planned, I TRUST HIS LOVE completely. SO for this week of renewal, I am going to look for the beauty in all things, study His word, listen..AND REST!

sold at auction!

Here is my pink princess that I sold at the silent art auction for Memory Matters (non-profit Adult Day Center for People with dementia). We raised over $7500.00 that night! YEAH! GREAT NIGHT!
