Happiness is having a totally unscheduled weekend with my husband where we do whatever we want completely guilt free.

Annemarie I have listed a few, thanks for asking the question.

1. Happiness is having a good nights sleep and not being hurt by new shoes.

2. Happiness is not so much in having as sharing. We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.

3. Happiness often sneaks in through a door you didn't know you left open.
Love

happiness is sleeping in, and waking up to sunshine

happiness is coffee with milk and sugar, hot, but not too hot to sip

happiness is hugs from little arms

Happiness is getting enough sleep, which directly impedes the joy I receive from:

Happiness #2, which is writing and playing with google blog and scrapblog.

Happiness #3, which is really #1, is the joy of being with my family. I cherish our time together, yet I never seem to have enough time to spend with them. (Part of which can be blamed on Happiness #2).

Happiness #4 is that quiet time of morning when the day has not yet begun. When the night sounds are still heard and shooting stars can still be seen streaking across the sky.

Happiness #5 is knowing I've made a child feel a little better about himself or herself. Although that one is not realized very often!

Happiness #6 is that time of day when daylight still lingers, but dusk is settling in. It's also my daughter's favorite time of the day when the setting sun casts a golden glow over each and every one of us no matter where we are on the planet.

Many more "happy" thoughts, and your post has definitely put me in a happy frame of mind! Thank you!

I Love Tissue Paper

Image
If you saw my Discipline collage , you can tell I have a thing for tissue paper. I have used it make inchies and to paint mountain/sunset scenes. Now I am working on some ATCs . I have done some before using the same cardstock I am using this time. However, I am tired of this background and want to alter it some how, so here's where the process went. (Note: I did try it on some sample-sized pieces of cardstock first so you might see those pop in from shot to shot.) I began with a plain piece of cardstock (it is supposed to be green/yellow.) I lightly drew a line on the card. I then squeezed some glue onto the card (don't ask why it's blue...that's another story.) I used scrap piece of stock to spread the glue to get a perfectly straight edge. I laid the tissue paper onto the wet glue and pressed out the bubbles. (You could use a brayer, it gets messy.) I trimmed the excess tissue. (I have torn it before, too, for a different effect.) After the glue dried, I took the c...

No Turning Back

Image
That title makes me think of a song we sing at church. "I have decided to follow Jesus....No turning back, no turning back." This time, however, it has to do with pushing the finalize button on the Expedia website. I finally purchased tickets to fly to Norway this summer with my friend Peggy. This was an idea I conjured up a couple of years ago after making contact with a friend from Norway I met 16 years ago when he was traveling around the US. Peggy heard about it, I asked her if she wanted to come, and surprisingly, she did. Ever since then, I have been working (teaching summer school and selling Mary Kay) to pay for this trip. I think if I hadn't made plans with Peggy, I wouldn't have ever had the guts to actually go . Peggy - World Traveler Everyday, I would go on line and look at the locations we could explore when we got there. I even have an email that I occasionally pasted ideas into to send to Peggy to let her know what we could do in Norway. I bought a boo...

I'm Baaack...At Least for a Bit

Long time no post. So what brings me back? Quirky Dutch Summer . Week 1 has me making my own art journal.  This sent me on a field trip to Hobby Lobby where I found quite a deal on journals, canvases and a pad of primed sheets of canvas. (More than 75% off.) I then dug through a very old stash of acrylic paint. All of my art supplies are in the garage after I cleaned out my office for Thanksgiving a year and a half ago. I needed room for a long table. I also didn't want my company seeing my messy workspace. I've not brought much in since then. That's what I'm liking about Quirky Dutch Summer. It has me playing in my art stuff again. I have no plans this summer and my youngest is about to leave for cousin camp, giving me plenty of time to get my hands dirty. So let me show you what I've made. First I painted the front of the canvas. Then I painted the back and let them dry overnight.  I folded the edges over and glued them down. I used Aleene...
