Well today I am featuring my SIL Barb (Mrs Miles)...this girl has so many talents and a love for the Lord that she shares openly. Before Barb got into digital scrapping ..she painted ...my home features many of her water colours ...when I figure out how to work my camera better I will show them off. This layout I am showing was a painting Barb had done and then she turned around and made many of them into cards ...which you could write your own personal message inside. This painting of the Daffodils makes me think of the Spring that is on it's way.
This poem makes me award of how thankful I am for family and friends...
Life's Most Precious Things
The sunset's glowing colors,
the music in the trees,
The sweet perfume of summer
borne on a wandering breeze,
The kaleidoscope of autumn
along each country lane,
The beauty of the snowflakes,
the lullaby of rain,
Our family's love to bless us,
good freinds who are always there,
Hope to cheer and comfort,
the peace we find in prayer,
Tomorrow's precious promise
God's given you and me
Of all we hold and cherish,
the dearest things are free.

What a BEAUTIFUL poem, and I'd forgotten about that painting entirely. I especially loved that I painted it using only two complementary colors.

My biggest delight is knowing its hanging on your walls, Judy.

Thank you for honoring me in this way today.

Its snowing like MAD here today, can only enjoy it for a short while if we are to believe the weathermen/women who are predicting rain in the next two days.

Love,
SIL

Wow thank you so much for sharing the gorgeous watercolour that Barb create. I love you new blog header, very nice.Thank you so much for all the comments that you share when visiting my blog, you are so loyal so thank you. You won't be seeing any tutorial for a long time to come though as I am still learning and don't feel that I am comfortable in techniques to share yet. By the looks of your layout and cards you are not needed any direction anyway. Have a wonderful day.
