Good Day!

 
Chum, my other care giver and bestest shadow pal in the world!



Hello my friends!
 I went for my 2 week check up yesterday, so here is a short video message to bring you up to date.






just one more thing...have any of you ever seen a Robin build a nest on the ground? I know it is a Robin because I watched her the other day scout out for worms and then hop back on.




Peace & Love to you all dear friends

Continuing the Sari Journal Journey with Springtime Spread


Hello friends,thank you for taking the time to visit!
My typing will be minimal in my next few posts as I regain my strength and feeling in my left hand,so please bear with me.
 For sure there will be loads of photos,so have your cuppa ready!
A few of our blog friends said they would like to see more of the Sari Journal from me.
 So,off we go!

 Here is my beginning inspiration. I ordered Gwen's Curated Stash Packs~Paper and Paper Embellishments-
 OMGosh what a glorious pack to open!
 After choosing some papers I added color to my page with Prima Sparks-Butterfly Spells
Then the layering began
One of Gwen's new spring time stencil releases- isn't this just gorgeous?!
 It is called Chinese Garden Plum Blossom.

 I felt the space between the  pages needed a bit of something, so a piece of Sari Scrap was added and the the Turkman Jewelry part with beading- I love how it turned out
 And this GORGEOUS piece of Pink Sari Scrap was the perfect embellishment for this page!
If you haven't purchased any of Gwen's Irresistible India Sari Scraps yet,I urge you to get some before they are gone-such delicious colors and fibers- you will just love them!
 
I cut out and embossed a few of these dies-sorry no longer available-but beautiful right?

Thank you so very much for your visit and I wish I could have been more detailed with my descriptions,please contact me via email or in the comments if you have any questions on my Springtime Spread in my Sari Journal!
