"You stand up for what you believe in, even if it gets you in the way of what others think..."

My photo
if i could use one word to describe my life SERENDIPITY seems to fit the space... i stumbled upon my husband during a time i shouldn't have and my story goes on from there... constantly falling or stumbling upon remarkable gifts and people who bring fortune to our lives... when we fall we learn and strive toward the next step.

Collage Box...it came~



“Thousands of candles can be lit from a single candle,
and the life of the candle will not be shortened.
Happiness never decreases by being shared.”
Buddha quotes


LaWendula




hosted a
Collage Box
it has traveled many miles
around the world
people adding and taking tiny tid bits

 finally made it to our door!

heres a peak






in this wee little book

inside

waiting


are
 snippets
 from all who shared in this adventure


then

a whole box
filled to the brim

with beautiful bits from here and there


believe me
 there is much much more
but i would hate to spoil all this great fun

there are still miles more this little box has to travel

so with that said

we were to PICK our pieces


and replace what left


create our snippet
to leave our mark


place all in the box


seal it back up


~and send it on its merry way~

{LaWendula...thank you so for creating such a fun way of sharing}

Wow, great pictures, my dear!
Thanks for that wonderful posting. Glad, you had fun! I can't believe that it's only one stop in the states now, then flying over to Canada! which means, only 5 more persons to stop at and then it will reach me back again.
Thank you for playing along! xo
