Happy Thoughts

"I've got sunshine in my heart, baby".


My exact words to my hubby last night, when he muttered about the dreary, cold, bleh in our neck of the the woods.

I don't blame him...he's an outdoor guy and he wants to play out there.

As for me...



I happen to like blue. ;0

stamps: Pretty Pink Posh Thoughtful Greetings, Papertrey Ink Palm Prints/Meadow Greens  dies:  Avery Elle Double Pierced Rectangles,Papertrey Ink Palm Prints/Meadow Greens/Brushed Off: Rectangle Die  Other: We R Memory Keepers Enamel Shapes

Plus, rain or shine...I wanna craft indoors!!!



Check out the serene scene at Inspired By~

The modern patterns and shades of navy had me reaching for my  tealish blues.

 I've got more of those in my ink stash.

I layered them with white and a smidge row of black 
(nod toward the laptop keys).

Could I use some sun~well, yah, who wouldn't?

But you know what?  Imma gonna craft on this cozy day until I run out of ideas.
