"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.

a beautiful mind~




“The imagination imitates.
 It is the critical spirit that creates.”
Oscar Wilde


jan 24

as you can see
my photo storage problem is finally resolved
i pondered and played
and finally gave in
not having in it in me to try a figure out a better way
i paid google for more storage
sometimes you just do what you gotta do
and for me
it seemed quite a reasonable price
in order to share my pictures with you


quite awhile back
i had the most wonderful pleasure
of meeting and exchanging papers
with


upon openening her package

i was taken
by the uniqueness of this here little lady


and the bits and pieces she sent forth

were nothing but divine


deeply rich
vibrant colors


that truly awoke my creative mind


and as i started seeing more and more
that she had sent my way


i became speechless

in awe
with each piece i came to hold



the gorgeous works she weaves into each piece
reminds me of a elaborate painting

a picture so clear through needles and thread


as i continued on

i kept thinking
it can't get any better than this

fascinating
right

makes you want to touch it...no???


these
dominoes

i had seen these on her blog
and was quite taken by the beautiful process

ever so sweet is she to send a few my way


isn't the contrast of colors just gorgeous


more you say

yes

this dear ones clever creative
 heart is ever so big


and i kept thinking just the same

each piece

i held
i touched
i sat completely entwined
engaged
engulfed


she filled me full of wonder


magic and enchantment


it is hard to sum up the beauty felt and recieved

i have yet to create with any of the pieces
possibly because when i look at them
touch them
 i see each as a piece art in just as they are

kind of afraid to mess them up
hehehe


THANK YOU
just doesn't seem quite good enough
it has been an honor
and pleasure sharing this exchange

you have opened my eyes
shook my mind
showing me unlimited possibilities
that lay waiting

if one chooses to create

if ever you want to treat for your eyes
a wee sparkle or glimpse of magic in your day
do please stumble on over
and visit this
