Taking Flight on Blue Monday

This vintage blue-eyed beautiful little girl is
being framed and heading for my booth
in celebration of
* BLUE MONDAY *
hosted by Smiling Sally
After printing out, I used a bit of my scrap booking chalks on her eyes and necklace. I may try one with green eyes as well.

And couldn't pass up this little blue guy
on the yellow flower for
* MELLOW YELLOW MONDAY *
hosted by The Drowsey Monkey

Then a gathering of some delights
from yesteryear for
* MOSAIC MONDAY *
hosted by Mary

Another start to a brand new week,
may you try something new and
be sure to tell us about it.

Harvest Greeting

Yesterday the wind was blowing from the north,
Leaves whirling through the air.

"Autumn is a second spring when
every leaf is a flower."
- Albert Camus

If vintage postcards are your treat,
it's Marie Reed that you must meet.

Welcome to my Very Cherry World!

What is black and white and red all over?
Well O.K...a splash of red here and there.
Looks like these roosters can't wait
for that ROOSTER PARTY I keep
reading about.

And Red Wing is an old song about
a poor Indian maid. A shy little prairie maid.
Every time our family gets the music jammin'
this one is always included.

~*~*~*~*~*~

Each week my love of white grows a little more.

The other day I came across
another kitchen that is just calling me.
That chair, I wish I could step through the screen
and look, touch, and take it all in.

And the more I see white sheets the more
I want to have them. I need to have them.
Cool, soft, white sheets.

But for me I think I need a little color on
the comforter.

P e a c e f u l

And before you leave through the garden arbor...

Pick a bit of fruit and...

I hope you all have a day full of love, joy, peace,
patience, kindness, goodness well, you know,
the fruit of the Spirit.
Enjoy visiting more RED & WHITE sure to not make you blue!
Wednesday is Rednesday at It's a Very Cherry World!

Come go with me...

Today my friendship celebration is with my husband as we round the bend on 34 years. I have, indeed, enjoyed a safe ride in his canoe!

Heading out Saturday morning with the Scouts
for a bit of canoeing and camping this weekend.
I plan on spending a lot of time cooling off in the river.

Saturday is our
34th Anniversary.

No matter what has tugged on our love
through the years,
we have hung onto each other.

My beloved is mine,
and I am his...
His banner over me is love.

From Shabby Chic to...

...just plain shabby!
What do I mean?

Lazy Saturday morning lying in this iron bed,
painted just the right shade of shabby pink,
with the view of...

this ceiling... thinking...

I sure would like to see the rest of that room.
It's got to be over the top!

~*~

With a closet full of pink shabby ruffles...

How does a girl decide what to wear?

Neither one would do for tending the garden.
I wish I had a pair of shabby pink overalls.

No it wasn't the heat out in the garden today
that gave Ms Victoria Bun a headache.

It was...
Leaving her 500 babies unattended
in the house!

Now that's just plain shabby!

500 babies...that's not why Ms Victoria Bun
has a headache...

...from Mr. Bunny's perspective
it doesn't look too shabby at all!

I'm sorry but I just couldn't resist.
I was looking for shabby pink overalls
for the garden and this popped up.
Just looked like a cute fluffy bunny tail.
