Stunning Arrangement

It was mostly an out and about day today.....some days are like that. 

But what a surprise to get a special delivery from a very special family. 

Barbara, Kate, Eliza, Oliver, and Avett are thinking us as Mother's Day approaches knowing that it will be different this year without Margie. So thoughtful!

This arrangement is just stunning!

I think about Margie so often and say to myself that she would love to hear this story or that one...or love this puzzle or that project. But I'm also so grateful that she doesn't have to burden herself with what's happening in our country. It all would be so heartbreaking for her.

Such unusual and striking flowers!

Pure joy! Thank you Callaghan family!

I did have time today to do a simple page in Brenda's altered journal....I try to do something in almost all of them every day. It's hard for me not to share too much.

I'm pleased with how this scalloped page turned out. It was one of the papers in Brenda's stash...and I believe it's from a reverse watercolor book. In order to get complete fishscale shapes I had to cut it apart and piece it back together...so this is actually four different pieces layered and stitched into the book. 

I like the way it sits on the next white page...but I'm also auditioning some possible colors for the next page. We'll see.
