Autumn Collage & Journaling

I love the warmth of golden autumn colors...

 

 ...and changing flowers.

Hope you enjoy some beauty in your day!

oh, Summertime...

Though I went to work yesterday for a workshop,

today and tomorrow

I still have summer vacation...so, I am

journaling softly,

napping happily,

 reading,

 listening to the Silence,

 

 and watching my flowers grow.

oh, and watching the Corn Moon, Full Moon.

Hope you caught it too.

Dear August,

You are going quickly, too quickly for me

 but I am grateful for you. 

Allow me to strengthen and prepare for the school year

to come...

and still soak up your light...

for a couple more days...

{sigh}

PS. Thank you so much for your Grama Congrats!!!

Yes, to  bring another sweet Capricorn Girl

into the world is pretty cool...ha!

Love,

Summer of Color: Strawberry Lemonade!

I really extra love Kristin's Ice Cream Inspirations

color palette this week!

♥

I discover something new every week,

and this week I found out how much

I like pink & yellow together!

Very sweet...!

And sideways, below, just in case somebody reads these...!

And here it is in the whole journal page spread

with last week's Baseball Nut ice cream palette:

My hydrangea plants looked like

they might not make it this year,

but nature is amazing

and these are strong and perseverant,

so they came back.

I think the Strawberry Lemonade theme

was their motivation!!

Gee, I don't know about you, but I either need some ice cream

or a glass of pink lemonade!

Cheers!

♥

2 years and a big thank-you to You!

Big smile as I discover that today is my 2-year Blog Anniversary!
Thank you so much for the enrichment and encouragement in so many ways, on so many levels.
Thank you for visiting and for reading and for commenting. It's a fact that you do make my day.

Me blogging is a feat in itself because not only am I very shy, but I never thought I could use a computer to accomplish much!  I am  learning!

And, I celebrate a little over 2 years of visiting and loving and being inspired by all of you creative stars in my life!  Yeah!

Thank you followers! Thank you, friends! ♥Love and my favorite hydrangeas for you to enjoy on this beautiful Sunday:

 May you have peace and sunshine,

and a few moments to do whatever it is that you enjoy most.

...and isn't it a miraculous thing of beauty that all of these stages and colors are on ONE bush? Aah!

Ode to the Hydrangea

I took a short walk down my road this morning because the sun peeked out for a few minutes, for the first time in a week. Snow is melting a bit and I looked for signs of spring...not really any yet, and I know it will still continue to snow, but it never hurts to hope. And I have nothing to complain about.

But then, I saw my wonderful hydrangeas! I enjoy them so much in the warm months, and they don't even deny beauty in the ice cold of winter. Aren't they amazing?

I just love hydrangeas. This summer I hope to have many more, especially blue ones!
