Monday Mosaic {and then some}

Yesterday while traveling in state for work, I took a detour to Paper Source. A girl can drool over their catalog for only so long before she needs to just go there!!

I have to say.....it was a little slice of heaven(no your not getting heaven pictures)!!!

If you have never been, perhaps these pictures will help you get in your car and drive to the nearest one!!!

I came home with this print...you know how I have that thing for bee's? Well this one spoke to me.....really spoke to me!



Also.....
Feeling a little under the weather here with the change in temp and seasons so here is a bonus mosaic! :D

My favorite thing of all when I have a sore throat is Tea with Honey.....Big tea drinker but this is the only time I drink tea with honey.

ME: A to Z

I am doing this great workshop with Cathy Zielske over at Big Picture Scrapbooks in September and you should really check it out! I think it is going to be great fun!



So I am reading this book in preparation for it...Encyclopedia of an Ordinary Life By Amy Krouse Rosenthal.

Loving this book! It is basically her life (Amy Rosenthal's) from A to Z....what a great way to tell it.

Reading it has been a great help with prompts for my own little list from A to Z about me.





(warning: really bad picture to follow)





This is my little tag book that I put together to record somethings for the class.


Please let me know if you are doing this class to! Would love to chat about it!

Do you know you? A to Z?,

4 Simple Goals....

When I read this post on Elsie Flannigan's blog I just knew it was something I wanted to do because I need some simple things in my life and I have got lots of somethings to do before the end of the year.



Here are my 4 Simple Goals to do before 2011...

1) Be Creative Daily

I went from very VERY actively creating to zero really fast last year. I have been done with that. Whether it is drawling, journaling, blogging (which I also see as journaling), or jotting down my creative thoughts daily....a little something everyday is a must.

2) Finish Afghan for "My Love"

Seriously, I am soooo close to having it done. Almost there. Want to get it done so he can finally enjoy it.

3) Eliminate Carbs!! (Be gone with you!)

The only carb I should be having are fruit and vegetables. Bread and Pasta don't exist anymore.

4) Eliminate debt totally, Live within means and more frugally

We are already on our way to being secure enough to enjoy ourselves and start looking for our own home. Need to totally eradicate the cc's and save save save!! We are almost there.


What kind of goals are you working on right now?,

...daydreaming!!

While sitting in an incredibly boring nurse meeting yesterday I got an idea for a new paint. {{That's right folks....I am painting again.}}

I started scribbling on the back of a handout and cant wait to do more with it. I can tell you it will have some blue and orange and a tree and a house. :)

Mosaic Monday?

Mondays are for mosaics!!

Here are a few pics from my one of my new favorites! 3LambsStudio



1. Keep Calm Parody - Red, 2. Dahlia Days II, 3. I Believe in Pink - Audrey Hepburn Quote in Raspberry and Dark Pink, 4. Witch Hazel Sky

I am sooo totally in love with anything that has the "Keep calm..." on it. But there is no much more to 3 Lambs that you should check out.

Keep Calm and share your thoughts,
Heather
