"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.

celebrate and cherish~

in this wonderland of blogging
the hearts of those
seem to just keep getting bigger and bigger

who enticed me in the beginning with her words
{she NEEDS to write a book}
has unraveled another side
she paints the most adorable paintings too
she is filled with goodness and inspiration
just celebrated a milestone
with a giveaway

i beg to differ

this was
HUGE
so many gifts to give



my package arrived
a
ginormous
yellow paisley box


thanks.friend.cherish.celebrate

need i say more


an artists dream


inspirations just pouring out


colors exploding
waiting to be


then
there was this
do you wonder
what you will see


as i opened this


i was taken aback


gorgeous


delicate


rich


lush


 intricately detailed
{would you believe these are wallpaper}


this piece i could stare at forever
l♥ve l♥ve l♥ve


so as i was looking
 at each of these jewels that came my way


my mind began wandering to all the possibilities


i couldn't help but dive in


let my thoughts run free


and create the day away
{i adore making origami...never tried with wallpaper
quite a challenge but i like the way my flowers and box turned out}

Kristin
i am forever grateful for the gifts you gave

my beliefs include many, constantly seeking knowledge, not needing one particular label that defines me nor trying to justify my thoughts to anyone else but me...this is my life and i am living it my way...bringing happiness to my inner soul.
