my 200th post!!!!!

it is hard to believe that i have already posted that many. and i so love looking back and seeing how things have changed so much for me over the last couple of years. i have so enjoyed the journey!!!

so for today’s post i wanted to include a piece of art but of course. i have hidden pieces of writings from my son as the background, a bit of my mom’s handwriting from an old recipe (photo copied of course.. couldn’t bring myself to use the original) i hand wrote important dates, my parents anniversary, my siblings names, my wedding date, etc; i wrote a secret message from my heart under the heart before covering the whole piece with tissue paper. i wish i could of written 200 separate things.. that would have been cool but alas i just thought of that!!

So as a thank you to all who follow and all who subscribe to my website i wanted to do a give a way. it will be very easy to win. leave me a comment and let me know you are a follower or a subscriber, whether currently or just joining me. in two weeks i will do a random draw for all those who have been kind enough to do so. i will then ship out, international is included by the way, on Monday August 22nd. What will i be shipping… alas just a bit of Tim goodness!!! Who wouldn’t love a bit of anything Tim really!

so for now though i need to run a long and start packing. i am off to spend two solid weeks in PEI. We have rented a cottage right on the ocean and i am so looking forward to doing nothing but laying on the beach, searching for beach glass and creating art. i have purchased a couple of magazines, packed a couple of books, downloaded a couple of projects and purchased a few supplies. They say there is no internet access.. hmmm.. wonder if i can go that long with out checking in…

til next time…

HAPPY SCRAPPING!!!

    I love this piece of art! Although very personal, it is also appealing all around. Gives me ideas for my nana’s recipes. She wou;d have been 112 yesterday.

    Just found your blog via the ATT group. I love what you have created here. It is beautiful!

    I read back through your posts and was touched when I read your blog about your mom. My Mum died a few years ago, with no regrets, after living a good life and seeing her family grow up. I miss her so much, it hurts. I can’t imagine how it must have been for you to lose your mom so young. Sometimes life seems so unfair.

    I’ll look forward to following you, now that I know you are there!
