One of Those Days

Today is just one of those days.......you know the kind where everything that could go wrong does.
Mounting doctor bills, husband sick at home, housework piling up, emotions out of whack, dishwasher broken, rain pouring down outside..............

Then I come across this photo.......

And a smile comes across my face. Funny how someone else's craft and artwork can inspire and uplift. There is just something about this cute little owl stuck outside on a rainy afternoon that makes me smile. It's the little things I tell you, that make life happy. Now I wish I knew how to needle felt one of these cute little guys for myself :)

I had fun on this card using up some of my "Crate Paper, Restoration" line that I have been hoarding for the past couple of months. I also used stamps from "Paper Trey Ink" and "October Afternoon" on this one.  And that gorgeous flower is from "Prima". 

Thanks for taking the time out of your day to visit my blog. I hope that we can all learn to get through this thing called life together. Until next time "Hugs" to all of you :)

Fall Time

Fall time is my most favorite season of the year for many reasons.  The first one being, that it is the time of year that I married my wonderful husband. Secondly it is the time of year that the temperature begins to cool down and people begin to wear cozy sweaters and drink cider.  It kicks off the beginning of the holiday season and it feels as if there is magic in the air.....I love fall (sigh..)

My husband and I recently celebrated our anniversary by going out to the apple orchards to pick fresh apples.  The day was crisp and clear and the leaves were beginning to change from green to a beautiful golden color.  I had my pumpkin spice latte in hand and was ready for fall festivities.  It was a perfect fall day.... I will never forget it.

Now for my crafty share today......

Loved this spooky owl image mixed with "My Mind's Eye" paper and frame from "Little Yellow Bicycle" This one is already up in my Etsy shop. Thanks for dropping by today, I hope you all have a beautiful day.
