Make a Wish

Make a Wish

Well, I was going to design a daffodil, but I wound up with a dandelion.

I think I need a wish for Spring to be on its way.

 

Looking for Spring

Sweet Spring!

Yes, I am tired of the Polar Vortex! 

Tired of snow! 

Tired of freezing cold temperatures! 

Tired of gray skies! 

Tired of boots, gloves, and heavy overcoats!

I know the ground hog said six more weeks of winter, but my thoughts are flying toward SPRING!

The Letter I for Ibis & Ivy

I is for Ibis & Ivy

I wanted to do another letter I, but I words were not inspiring and I was at a loss. 

There not many I words that are tangible things. 

Okay, there is iguana and iris, but that is about it after ivy and ibis. 

I had to look up what an ibis looked like. To my surprise the birds were not only white, but some are a marvelous RED! 

One was not enough. Of course once I added a second!  There had to be a little romance happening since Valentine's Day is two weeks away. 

He IDOLIZES her! 

Sigh! 

So there we are, my IDEA for the letter I.

January Blahs

January

It has been very cold and snowy in Ohio during this month of January,

not to mention the endless gray skies!

Snow at Christmas is festive, but not in January when the reality of winter hits. 

Heavy coats and boots weigh us down as we try to make our way out of the comfort of our homes.

The bright side is this: there is less than a week left of January and February is a short month!

The days are getting longer!

Both January and February are those months of recuperation, collecting our thoughts, and cleaning out closets of unwanted stuff. It is the preparation for Spring!

Maybe January is a necessity.

The Letter H - H is for Hose and Hare if You Dare

H is for Hose and Hare if You Dare

Okay, it is January and we are having record freezing temperatures here. Brrrrr just doesn't describe it. So rather than bemoan the cold, I tried to think of warmer thoughts. So here is a new letter H for my illustrated alphabet series. Don't ask me how I came up with hose in this weather, but the days are getting longer and I have spring on my mind.

My husband, Norm, and I will be doing a show together! Our work is cut out for us the next couple of days! Lots to think about and lots of work to hang!

I am rather excited though, even though we have had a lot of snow. 

Cross your fingers...sure hope it is a success!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

H A P P Y   N E W   Y E A R !

 It has been a very busy year! 

I can't quite believe that December is almost over and January is around the corner!

When I was young, just the year 2001 seem so far away. So futuristic! Now it will be 2014!

My prayer for the new year is this:

That the world is filled with love, goodness, truth, prosperity, and common sense.

Wishing you love and happiness in the new year!
